Hi guys, I’m running a strange problem sending emails. Basicly I’m  
getting this exception:

ArgumentError (wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)):  
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.1/lib/active\_record/  
base.rb:642:in `initialize' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.1/lib/active_record/ base.rb:642:in`new’

base.rb:383:in `method_missing' /app/controllers/web_reservations_controller.rb:29:in`test\_email’  
In my web\_reservations\_controller I have a simply method calling

TestMailer.deliver\_send\_email  
And my TesMailer is something like:

class TestMailer \< ActionMailer::ARMailer  
def send\_email  
@recipients = “removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid”  
@from = “removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid”  
@subject = “TEST MAIL SUBJECT”  
@body = “  
TEST MAIL MESSAGE”  
@content\_type = “text/html”  
end  
end

Do you have any idea?

Thanks! Roberto
