Thanks. Funnily enough that is what I started with:

self.prepend_view_path(
Pathname.new(
File.join( File.dirname( __FILE__ ) )
).realpath.to_s
)

Which does work in the stand-alone script using actionmailer (4.0.13)
but which seems not to work inside a Rails-4.2 project. At least not
the way I think that it should. From what I have read the
prepend_path adds to the existing Rails constructed path which will
always include the root portion of the calling controller name, in the
case of the currencies_controller this would prepend the value to
'/currencies' rather than stipulate an absolute search path.

I strongly suspect that something RoR is doing in the background is
causing these problems. I just cannot seem to find a way to avoid or
undo it for this specific controller.

In the RoR app a link is called from the currencies_controller.

```ruby
# Send an email with the latest commerical forex rates
# POST /forex/send/commercial/rates
def hll_th_forex_send_commercial_rates_notice

@comm_curr = HLLCommercialForexRatesNotice.find_and_email_rates

```

```ruby
class HLLCommercialForexRatesNotice
. . .
@comm_curr.each do |currency|
unless currency.currency_code == currency.default_base_currency
# mail_rtn = MailerPublic.deliver_forex_hll_commercial_rates(
HllThForexMailer.hll_th_forex_commercial_rates_notice(
currency,
date,
to_address,
fm_address ).deliver_now # or: #deliver_later
end
end
. . .

In the stand alone script the mailer is directly invoked.

```ruby
@comm_curr.each do |currency|
unless currency.currency_code == currency.default_base_currency
HllThForexMailer.hll_th_forex_send_commercial_rates_notice(
currency, date, to_address, fm_address ).deliver
end
end
```
