I’ve included ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper on my ActionMailer class to  
render tags like link\_to, but for some reason whenever my email template  
renders the link\_to tag the results come out as “(click to that page, or  
however you have that set up)” instead of being a real link tag.

Any idea?

Thanks!
