How to structure send email to all users using Rails

I plan to send my users a reminder email once a day.

I will user Heroku scheduler.

As I understand it:

I create a RAKE task in lib/tasks/scheduler.rake

Then do the config on Heroku to run that

In the RAKE task I need to call something like User.send_reminders, in send_reminders I pass a request to the mailer to send an email to each user.

My question is should send_reminders be in the the users model or the users controller?

Probably very basic but I can't quite work it out.

Thanks in advance.

Always need to write model related actions in the model itself. Controller should be kept percise for request related decision making.

So keep your send_reminders in model and call it from rake task.
