Rather then using return redirect_to('home') in your email controller,
why not just call home directly return self.home(), of course that
assumes that home and email are in the same controller which they might
not be, but you should be able to simply import what ever actions you
need from waht ever controllers you you've already written. Or did I
miss something very fundamental in the the conversation?
