Hmmm... I just checked as I am doing just about the same thing. Your code looks ok, the only difference with mine is I am naming the class variable @body_text.

Also, you can put a break point inside the mailer view I think --- <%= debugger; @body %>.... then you can really see what is getting in there.
Action Mailer is detecting my HTML view but not evaluating any
instance variables I'm referencing in it. Here is my mailer:
class Emailer < ActionMailer::Base
def send_default(recipient, subject, message, sent_at)
@body = message
mail(:to => recipient, :subject => subject)
end
end
I have a view called
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" http-equiv="Content-
Type" />
</head>
<body>
This is an HTML email: <br />
<%= @body %>
<br />
End of the body.
</body>
</html>

When I receive the email in Gmail, here is all I see:
This is an HTML email:
End of the body.
Nothing is outputted between those 2 sentences! Any ideas as to
what's happening? I verified that in the mailer method, @body has a
value. I'm using Rails 3.0.7 and Ruby 1.9.2 and following this guide:
