Something I have wondered as well. From some light research it seems
ROR uses ActionMailer::Base subclassed as a model that renders views.
Maybe someone from the cake core can give their opinion.
Alternatively, you could create a Email model which saves info to the
database, which is then read from a shell scheduled in cron to send
the actual emails :)
