Is it possible to 'unload' ActionMailer in Rails 3 application.rb?

I am trying to disable the parts of rails that i'm not using in my application, such as ActionMailer. Ib my application.rb, I made the following change

require "action_controller/railtie"
require "action_mailer/railtie"
#require 'rails/all'

And my app works fine. Now when I go and comment out the 'require "action_mailer/railtie"' line, I get the following error. I don't haveany mailers installed, so what's going on?

Thanks

Be careful, config.frameworks is deprecated in Rails 3!

The error you've got is coming from the #18 line of the file development.rb :

config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = false

Since you do not require it anymore, config.action_mailer is undefined. You just have to comment the line and you will be fine.

In application.rb

config.frameworks -= [:action_mailer]
