warning: contains shameless self promotion
This isn't directly addressing your question, but you might want to look at
something like the Wisper gem <https://github.com/krisleech/wisper>, it
allows you to decouple the sending of the email from the `User` model,
which means you can test the different parts in isolation.
In general `after_save` callbacks in models will make testing more
difficult. The trade off is you move away from the Rails golden path.
