Hi there!

I’m trying to setup the Mailr engine to handle webmail at a site I’m  
building, but there seems to be a little problem. It complains about the  
method “bindtextdomain” to be undefined. That method is part of gettext,  
I’d say, but the gettext gem _is_ installed. The only thing I can think  
of is Mailr being out of date, since the doc page refers to Rails 1.0  
and 1.1, but not 1.2. I’m not sure if this means that they’re not done  
making it work with 1.2 or what, but my ruby expertise doesn’t seem to  
suffice to solve this on my own. Anyone having a clue about Mailr and  
Rails 1.2?
