Problem sending mail with message and attachements after upgrading to Rails 3 - ruby-on-rails

Question

I used to have this code for sending mails:
class MailTimerMailer < ActionMailer::Base
def mail_schedule(from, to, cc, bcc, subject, message, files=[], sent_at = Time.now)
#subject = subject
#recipients = to
#from = from
#cc = cc
#bcc = bcc
#sent_on = sent_at
#body["message"] = message
#headers = {}
# attache files
files.each do |file|
attachment file.mimetype do |a|
a.body = file.binarydata
a.filename = file.filename
end
end
end
end
It no longer works. I do not have a view for my mails, as the complete message comes from outside my method. I have tried to modify my code to Rails 3 like this:
class ScheduleMailer < ActionMailer::Base
def mail_schedule(from, to, cc, bcc, subject, message, files=[], sent_at = Time.now)
#subject = subject
#recipients = to
#from = from
#cc = cc
#bcc = bcc
#sent_on = sent_at
#body["message"] = message
#headers = {}
# attache files
files.each do |file|
attachments[file.filename] = File.read("public/data/" << file.id.to_s() << "." << file.extension)
end
end
end
This code sends a mail with the attachements, but there are no actual message in the mail. It also gives me a deprecation warning "Giving a hash to body is deprecated, please use instance variables instead". I have tried with "body :message => message" but no luck.
How can I get this working again?
Thank you

This is how:
class MyMailer < ActionMailer::Base
def mail_schedule(from, to, cc, bcc, subject, message, files=[], sent_at = Time.now)
# attache files
files.each do |file|
attachments[file.filename] = File.read("public/data/" << file.id.to_s() << "." << file.extension)
end
mail(:from => from, :to => to, :cc => cc, :bcc => bcc, :subject => subject) do |format|
format.text { render :text => message }
end
end
end
