Email output settings in the Email context and sections
The following settings for the Email context and Email sections have an impact on how the
actual emails are sent.
l An Email To Script must be available in the template and refer to a valid email address;
see "Email header settings" on page562. If any record does not have a valid email, this
record is skipped automatically when generating email output.
Note
When you send a test email, the Email To Script will not be used; instead, the email
will be sent to the address that you specify in the Send Test Email dialog.
l The sender(s), recipient(s) and the subject can be set using Script Wizards; see "Email
header settings" on page562.
l Default SMTP settings can be set in the preferences; see "Email header settings" on
page562.
l If there are multiple Email sections, only one of them can be merged with each record.
Make sure that the correct section has been set as the default; see "Setting a default
Email template for output" on page562.
To dynamically select a section for output, use a Control Script; see "Control Scripts" on
page954.
When printing from the Designer, the currently open Email section will be outputted.
l A plain-text version of the HTML is added to each email if this option is checked in the
Email section's properties (see "Email section properties" on page1075). With new
templates this is always the case.
