# How Clearance / Hoptoad does it
module Clearance
  class << self
    attr_accessor :configuration
  end

  def self.configure
    self.configuration ||= Configuration.new
    yield(configuration)
  end

  class Configuration
    attr_accessor :mailer_sender

    def initialize
      @mailer_sender = '[email protected]'
    end
  end
end

# to use

  config.mailer_sender = '[email protected]'
end

# How Devise does it
module Devise
  mattr_accessor :mailer_sender # requires active support
  @@mailer_sender = '[email protected]'

  class << self
    def setup
      yield self
    end
  end
end
