Contact us functionality in Rails 3

I want to make a contact us form in Rails 3 with the following fields:

The posted messages are intended to go to my email address so I don't neccessarily must store the messages in the database. Do I have to use ActionMailer, any gem or plugin for it?

Solution

  • This tutorial is an excellent example - and it's Rails 3

    Update:

    This article is a better example than the one I posted earlier, works flawlessly

    Second Update:

    I would also recommend merging-in some of the techniques outlined in this railscast on the active_attr gem, where Ryan Bates walks you through the process of setting up a tabless model for a contact page.

    Third Update:

    I wrote my own test-driven blog post about it
