 ## Rails 4.0.0 (unreleased) ##
 
+* Allow delivery method options to be set per mail instance *Aditya Sanghi*
+
+  If your smtp delivery settings are dynamic,
+  you can now override settings per mail instance for e.g.
+
+      def my_mailer(user,company)
+        mail to: customer.email, subject: "Welcome!",
+             delivery_method_options: {user_name: company.smtp_user,
+                                       password: company.smtp_password}
+      end
+
+  This will ensure that your default SMTP settings will be overridden
+  by the company specific ones. You only have to override the settings
+  that are dynamic and leave the static setting in your environment
+  configuration file (e.g. config/environments/production.rb)
+
 * Allow to set default Action Mailer options via `config.action_mailer.default_options=` *Robert Pankowecki*
 
 * Raise an `ActionView::MissingTemplate` exception when no implicit template could be found. *Damien Mathieu*
