rspec users - Mar 2011 - RSPEC how to post to a controller? What's wrong with this?

I''m trying to post to my controller in RSPEC by doing:

  it "should store create an IncomingMail record" do

    lambda {
      post :create,
           :from => ''xx'',
           :to => ''xx'',
           :cc => ''xx'',
           :subject => ''xx'',
           :message_text => ''xx'',
           :message_html => ''xx''
    }.should change(IncomingMail, :count).by(1)

  end


I do have this in my rake routes: POST /incoming_mails(.:format) 
{:controller=>"incoming_mails", :action=>"create"}

I checked the logs. While the test above is hitting the controller, it is 
never going inside the method def create. Any ideas why?

Thanks

So you checked the log and you see a sql insert statement?

Off the top of my head I can think of 198723 possibilities. To help expedite the
narrowing down process, please provide:

1. Complete example code
2. Complete controller code
3. Complete rspec output
4. Complete log output
