Modifying the sample email content

Edit online

You can modify the content of the sample email notifications that are used for testing.

Before you begin

Depending on how your system administrator customized your system, you might not have access to this task. To obtain access to this task or to have someone complete it for you, contact your system administrator.

A post office email aggregation template must already be configured.

About this task

Modify the content of the sample email notification.

Procedure

  1. Edit the enRole.properties file.
  2. Specify the new enrole.postoffice values, and then save the enRole.properties file.
    enRole.properties is the name of the properties file, and enrole.postoffice is the name of the key for which you specify a value. This key-value pair resides in the properties file.
  3. Restart your application server for the new values to take effect.

Results

The results of this task can be seen only after you test the aggregation template that you created or modified. The new sample email notifications are aggregated and sent to the test email address.

Example

The enRole.properties file contains the following default values:

#############################################################
## Post Office Template Test Configuration
#############################################################
# These are the contents of the emails that will be used
# when the "test" button is used on the Post Office
# configuration page. These 3 emails will be used as the
# content to which the template will be applied.
enrole.postoffice.test.subject1=This is subject 1
enrole.postoffice.test.textbody1=This is the text body 1

# The topic to use for the test emails above
enrole.postoffice.test.topic=topic1

# The locale to use for the test emails above
enrole.postoffice.test.locale=en_US

Test the new aggregate template by sending it to a test email address.
