How do I send html emails with ActionMailer?

Send HTML emails with inline images with ActionMailer

• I have a simple ActionMailer class like this: class MyMailer < ActionMailer::Base def mail(from, to, cc, bcc, subject, message, sent_at = Time.now) @subject = subject @recipients = to @from = from @cc = cc @bcc = bcc @sent_on = sent_at @body["message"] = message @headers = {} end end And I ue it like this from a controller: MyMailer.deliver_mail(mail.from, mail.to, mail.cc, mail.bcc, mail.subject, mail.message) I prefer to keep it simple with no templates or such, and it is a webservice with no views. How do I change it to be able to send HTML mails with embedded images (in img tags i mean)? I need to attach the images woth the correct mime-type and also set the body with the correct mime-type, but how? Thank you
