All,

I’m using ExceptionNotifier to send me emails of unexpected errors in my  
production app.

But I’d like to “push” certain exceptions which I’ve caught but would  
still like to get an ExceptionNotifier type email for.

Is there a way for me to explicitly “push” a caught exception to  
ExceptionNotifier?

Thanks,  
Wes

There may be another way, but I believe you will have to rethrow the  
exception, then override rescue\_action\_in\_public in application.rb to do  
what you want after the notification is sent.
