So, mail Gem version 1.3.0 has been released. The upgrades have been mainly in getting ActionMailer to work with Mail instead of TMail. This really put Mail through it’s paces and I found a lot of little edge case bugs to fix. The good news is that ActionMailer now runs with Mail with all tests passing on MRI 1.8.6, 1.8.7 and 1.9.1 Mail of course, still passes all specs in MRI 1.8.6, 1.8.7 and 1.9.1 Basically, if you are using Mail 1.x, upgrade to the latest version, you should not get any breakage in your code. Please let me know if you do. Also, anyone using TMail could upgrade to Mail 1.3.0 now without loss of functionality. The change log is below: == Mon Nov 23 23:34:22 UTC 2009 Mikel L.

[removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) - Changed Encodings.param\_encode(string) so it intelligently encodes and quotes needed items and leaves plain, no special char, US-ASCII alone unquoted. == Sat Nov 14 08:20:21 UTC 2009 Mikel L. [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) - Resolved Issue #10 - empty/nil cc/bcc field causes exception (Mail::Field::ParseError) == Fri Nov 13 00:31:04 UTC 2009 Mikel L.

[removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) - Renamed Mail::Message.encode! to Mail::Message.ready\_to\_send!, deprecated :encode! - Rewrote encoding and decoding methods on all classes. Adds a lot of boiler plate code, but allows us to be really precise in each field type that needs custom encoding. Now all encoding is done by the field\_type itself. Need to follow through on the body. - Bump version to 1.2.0 due to changes of :encoded, :decoded behaviour == Tue Nov 3 00:59:45 UTC 2009 Mikel L.
