Unleash Devise-Enabling All Modules
If you input a valid email of the users you created in the system and submit the form. A POST request to http://localhost:3000/users/password will be made. Then a reset password mail as described in the previous section will be sent out. You can find that mail in the terminal running rails server. If you have a gem like letter_opener, you can see that mail shown in your browser.

Using Action Mailer to Send Emails from a Rails App
My latest project for Flatiron school is The Carpool App - one central place for parents to post and find carpools for their kids. A big part of parents arranging carpools includes parents communicating with each other, especially to request for their child to join a carpool, and then for the driver of the carpool to either accept or reject the join request. As parents are not expected to keep their eyes glued to the website to see the updates, it became necessary to have the parents updated by sending them an email.
