Implement Basic Messaging System. #45

Open undergroundwebdesigns opened 9 years ago

undergroundwebdesigns commented 9 years ago

JoatU needs a messaging system to fascilitate exchanges between members.

The mailboxer gem looks like a good fit for the "heavy lifting" for this system on the backend. Eventually we will be expanding this system to customize the messages being sent and develop them into a contract system, but for now text messages between members is all that is required.

Members should receive an email notification when they receive a new message on JoatU, using out existing Mandrill account (already configured in the app).

UI is completely TBD (@joatu, any thoughts?)

I think that's a fine idea. It will be easier to judge once it's working obviously. But if you think it's a good idea, I think it's a good idea.
