System Email

System email is a way for Contensive developers to add email functionality when an event happens on a site. In order to receive these emails, they need to be configured. The fields within a system email are as follows:

• Name - name of the email, this field is read only and used by the Contensive Developer
• Subject Line - subject line of the email being sent (this field is required and the email will not be sent unless this field is completed)
• From Address - email address the email comes from (this field is required and the email will not be sent unless this field is completed)
• Send Confirmation To - If a person would like to be notified each time this email is sent, select a user to receive the notification
• Email Template - allows the email to use a template
• Body - the body of the email being sent
• Allow Link Authentication - when checked, each link in the email that points back to the Contensive site will authenticate the receiving user when clicked
• Allow Spam Footer - adds the SPAM footer to the bootom of each email

All email types have a tab for groups and topics. If groups or topics are selected in the system email record, this email will send one email to each member of the groups or topics selected.

To modify a system email, login and click on ADMIN, MANAGE EMAIL and then SYSTEM EMAIL. You will then click on the paper/pencil icon next to the email you want to modify. Once you make desired changes, click OK to save them.
