Hello,  
I do i define the content\_type if i want to send multipart mail through  
rails.  
Also, I some cases i want to send multipart mail (with attachments) and

Can anyone please suggest me what should I do…  
Thank you.

Hi, I found some pages, take a look:  
[http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowToSendMimeMultipartEmailsWithActionMailer](http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowToSendMimeMultipartEmailsWithActionMailer)  
[ActionMailer::Base](http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionMailer/Base.html) (see the  
“Multipart email” section)
