Re: calling a component in a model

While Miles J is right in general, there are exceptions.

This is how I used Emailcomponent from a model:
http://github.com/ionas/sna/blob/master/www/app/app_model.php#L98
(1.2.5)

I am not sure if an email datasource would be the best approach in
general (and the component as well as models could use that) or if
there is something missing to the MVC aka. DS/M/B + C+C + V+H
architecture, something like "lib" or so...

King regards
ionas
