active_support dependency too restrictive

[mperham]

Requiring AS 2.3.4+ means that older versions of Rails can't use the mail gem. I just verified that mail works fine for sending simple emails with Rails 2.1.2. Could you loosen the version restriction to something like ">=2.1.0"?

Hi there,

Unfortunately no. Mail needs certain things inside of AS 2.3 that handles selective library loading. I would really recommend you go to Rails 2.3.5 for security and stable updates. Let me know off list if you need any help with this. mikel at rubyx.com

Actually the requirement is AS 2.3.5+. I just verified that mail is not working with AS 2.3.4, because there is no file active_support/core_ext/object/blank.rb in 2.3.4. I think that the gemspec should be updated.

Updated the gemspec. Thank you.
