Setting "From" in Mailer model

Rails
1

At the moment mail sent from my app comes from “mailer” when received by
gmail. Is it possible (i.e. some particular format) to make this more
meaningful?

What I have at the moment one of my typical mailer methods:

def updated
recipients users.collect(&:email).join(’,’)
from “[email protected]”
subject some_subject
body
end

Whoops, by meaningful I mean, appearing in my inbox as coming from
“MyDomain.com Mailer” instead of just “mailer”

I use the format

from “Some P. [email protected]”

Peace.

You’d write:

from ‘MyDomain.com Mailer [email protected]’

If the email sender is common to all mailer methods
you can move this “from” call to the initialize method,
so it only has to appear once.
