E-mail templates define the content and layout of
automatic e-mail messages sent by the system. A newly registered user
automatically receives his/her password via e-mail, for instance. The
p-admin can personalize the text of the email templates.
First, the general procedure will be explained. Examples for adjustments in the main input field ("Body") are given afterwards.
In order to create an e-mail template, proceed as follows:
|1| Choose "Messages" from the main menu by clicking on it.
|2| Click on the modify-button next to Email templates.
|3| If your platform
has just been created, you will see a list of standardized e-mail
templates. In order to change one of the templates, click on the
"modify"-button in the respective row. If one of the templates is still
missing, click on the respective link on the left side.
|4| In order to create a new e-mail template, fill out the following input fields:

Fill in the sender's email address.

|

you can keep to the default. |
