In future, please also post the errors; since this isn't all the code in
your application we can't run it to see what happens, and are relying on
you to tell us.

You've defined the import method below as a class method (`def
self.import`) but are attempting to call an instance method here on
`@question`.
The two lines above should likely be:
Question.import(params[:file])

Double-check your source file: the line you've pasted here has slant-quotes
(“ and ”) which are not the same thing to Ruby as a straight double-quote
("). It's also possible that these were adding while composing the email.

What is the intent of this line? Are there situations where you can have
multiple `Question` records with the same ID? There is not a class method
called `save!` built into ActiveRecord.
