Rails - Jun 2006 - email when validation fails

Hi,

Say I want to send an email to someone every time a validation fails
in any model.  What would be the best way of doing that?

Thanks,
Joe

A good old ActionMailer class. A good name for it would be SystemNotifier.

I just set up something like this yesterday.  The RoR wiki has some 
great examples of how to set up your mailer.
