Mail::to

mail::to is a Ruby on Rails helper method that generates a link to send an email to a specific recipient. It is often used in views to create a link that allows users to send an email to a specific person or group of people.

The basic syntax for mail::to is as follows:

mail_to("[email protected]", "Recipient's Name")

This will generate a link that looks something like this:

<a href="mailto:[email protected]">Recipient's Name</a>

You can also pass additional options to mail::to to customize the link. For example:

mail_to("[email protected]", "Recipient's Name", subject: "Hello")

This will generate a link with a subject line of "Hello".

Here are some common options you can pass to mail::to:

• subject: sets the subject line of the email
• body: sets the body of the email
• cc: sets the CC recipients for the email
• bcc: sets the BCC recipients for the email
• from: sets the from address for the email

Here is an example of using mail::to with multiple options:

mail_to("[email protected]", "Recipient's Name", subject: "Hello", body: "Hello, this is a test email", cc: "[email protected]", bcc: "[email protected]", from: "[email protected]")

This will generate a link that looks something like this:

<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Hello&body=Hello%2C%20this%20is%20a%20test%20email&[email protected]&[email protected]&[email protected]">Recipient's Name</a>

Note that the mail::to method is only available in Rails 3.1 and later. In earlier versions of Rails, you can use the mailto helper method instead.
