Problem with editor

[Tram mart]

Hello everybody,

I am using Primefaces and I have a problem with the editor.
I show an editor initialized with a text, taken from the database. The user can edit this text, and after clicking the button, a mail is sent with this text.
But the saved text is always the old one, it is never updated.
I have seen that if I don't initialize the editor with a text, and I write something, it gets what I write. But it doesn't happen when the editor has a default value.

 <p:editor id="editor" value="#{myBean.mailContent}" width="730" height="700"/>
         
                     <p:commandButton id="button_sendEmail" ajax="false"
                                      value="Send Mail"
                                      actionListener="#{myBean.sendMail}">
                     </p:commandButton>
                     <p:commandButton id="button_cancelEmail" ajax="false"
                                      value="Cancel Mail"
                                      actionListener="#{myBean.cancelMail}">
                     </p:commandButton>

MyBean

//Method to initialize the editor, this is called when the user goes to that GUI, and the editor is not empty, contains this text:
   public void setMailContent()
   {
      mailContent = mailTemplateDao.getTemplate(................);
   }

   public void sendMail()
   {
      notifyUser(getUser(), getMailContent());
   }

   public String getMailContent()
   {
      return mailContent;
   }

   public void setMailContent(final String aMailContent)
   {
      mailContent = aMailContent;
   }

Does anybody know how could I update the value? Thanks

While I am a little nervous that your initializer method has been coded with a "set"-style signature, what I'm actually suspecting is something different. What is the scope of this bean?
