Rails - May 2005 - partials in ActionMailer?

Hi,

I''m pretty sure the errors I''m getting already answer my
question (i.e.
''No'') but I thought I''d double-check.

Is it possible to call render_partial in an ActionMailer rhtml 
template?  If not, is there an equivalent feature?

I''ve got a number of different loop sections that build up email 
contents and they appear in multiple templates.  I''ve ended up with 
something very, very wet (i.e. not DRY).  To be able to do 
render_partial would take away all my pain.

Thanks,
Trevor

You can''t do render_partial, but you should be able to use render:

   <%= render ''some/view'', :local_var =>
"something" %>
