am developing ruby on rails3 application where i am sending an email to user and if user replies that email then that reply content, date should be updated to the database. For this i have ProductComment model. when admin sends comment to the user it will be stored in the database. if user replies to that then database should be updated accordingly. I am trying to use mailman. I have installed the gem. But am not getting how to get the comment id, what should i write in replyto address, where to write the mailman code and from which mail i should read.
Am sending email like this:
mail(:to => @user.email, :subject => "Edit Your Product", :reply_to=>"abc@syz.com)
I am handling it in products controller like this:
require 'mailman'
Mailman::Application.run do
to 'abc@xyz.com' do
ProductComment.create(message)
end
end
Please help me to come out from this problem
