ActionMailer doesn't recognise route

I have a route called "settings_redirect", which I've defined as follows:

routes.rb

match "/settings/redirect" => "settings#redirect", :via => "get"

I want to link to this route in an email template:

mymail.html.erb

<%= link_to "Manage Settings", settings_redirect_url %>

Yet, when I get ActionMailer to send the email, I get the error

{undefined local variable or method `settings_redirect_url' for #<#:0x007ffa1153de38>

The same link works completely fine in any regular view, just not when I try to send it in an email. All other links in the same template don't cause any trouble either.

Any ideas as to what could cause the error?

You can use this form:

get "settings/redirect" => "settings#redirect", :as => :settings_redirect
