Hi I am using the action mailer as explained in the pragmatic book.

When I send a text email to yahoo the html part comes as an attachment  
but in the yahoo mail body I see the following :

and then the attachment

==============================

Here is my notifier controller

class Notifier \< ActionMailer::Base

def sendemail(mytarget,mysubject, msgbody)  
@subject = mysubject  
@recipients = mytarget  
@from = ‘removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid’  
@bcc = ‘removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid’  
content\_type “multipart/alternative”

part :content\_type =\> “text/html”,  
:body =\> render\_message(“sendemail”, :msgbody =\> msgbody)

end  
end

thanks
