Setting up gmail-mailer

You will need to provide mailer with a hashmap containing the ouath details for your account. email_credentials = { :smtp_oauth_token=>“

Maruku could not parse this XML/HTML: 
<your outh_token>",
        :smtp_oauth_token_secret=>"<your ouath token secret>", 
        :email=>"<your gmail address>"
    }

Sending a message

mailer.send(message)

Example application

require 'gmail-mailer'
email_credentials = 
{
    :smtp_oauth_token=>"<your outh_token>",
    :smtp_oauth_token_secret=>"<your ouath token secret>", 
    :email=>"<your gmail address>"
}

# construct message
message = GmailMailer::Message.new("to", "Hello Subject", "Hello Body")

# add an attachment to the message
message.add_attachment(File.expand_path('~/image.png'))

# construct mailer using the email_credentials defined above
mailer = GmailMailer::Mailer.new(email_credentials)

# send email
mailer.send(message)

Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn’t requested it and/or contributed it
Fork the project
Start a feature/bugfix branch
Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
