Email templates change very rarely on my project, so I don't mind the usual
approach of matching the body against a few patterns. And, it's easy to do.
Anyway, here's an example spec of a mailer on my current project:

describe Mailer, "job application submitted" do

  before(:each) do
    @user = stub(:full_name => "Jane Roe", :email_address => "
[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
    @applicant = stub(:full_name => "john doe", :user => @user)
    @assessment_url = "http://www.example.com";
    @email = Mailer.create_job_application_submitted(@applicant,
@assessment_url)
  end

  it "addresses the email from the support address" do
    @email.from.should == ["[EMAIL PROTECTED]"]
  end

  it "addresses the email to the given user" do
    @email.to.should == [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  end

  it "sets the subject" do
    @email.subject.should == "[EMAIL PROTECTED] - Job
application submitted"
  end

  it "includes the applicant name in the body" do
    @email.body.should match(/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/)
  end

  it "includes the applicant's assessment link in the body" do
    @email.body.should match(/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/)
  end

end

Hope that helps somehow.

Also, the Rails Guides site has some content on testing mailers:
http://guides.rails.info/testing_rails_applications.html#_testing_your_mailers.
