here are the steps I follow for Notification stuff

1. have a user controller and model
2. create rails mailer: rails g mailer user_mailer
3. open app/mailers/user_mailer.rb and added following method

def signup_nofitication(user)
@user = user
end

it should work now.

goto console, and run

user = User.last
UserMailer.signup_nofitication(user).deliver

let me know if it works for you or not.. if not then post error
message as well.
