I am receiving the following error when I try to send mail using a mailer. I have a form that allows the user to fill in name, email, and message. Clicking the submit button posts to the send_mail action of the ContactsController.

My controller looks like:
class ContactsController < ApplicationController
def mail
end
def send_mail
ContactMailer.email(params[:email], params[:name], params[:message]).deliver
end
end
My mailer looks like:
class ContactMailer < ActionMailer::Base
default :from => "<from>"
def email(email, name, message)
@message = message
mail(:to => "<email>", :subject => "<message>" + name, :from => email)
end
end
The problem was that there was a class overriding mail in the project. Incase anyone ever runs into this same issue just delete or rename the mail class/model.
