I Would also like to be able to send HTML emails.

What I am trying to do is to send the path to a CIFS folder in the form of a file link, something like:

Please go here to edit the document: <a href="file://MyAlfrescoServer/Alfresco/My_CIFS_Folder">Link to CIFS Folder</a>‍

Anyone found a solution to this please? Is there a config that can be set?

Thanks,

Brian

Hi Brian,

i did more investigations since this old post and it seems that Alfresco don't provide HTML mail.
To do it you need to extend mailActionExecuter.java, to configure it to support HTML.
Copy original code and replace :

message.setText(text);‍

message.setText(text,true);‍

Thanks Pierre for the quick reply.

I don't really know how to extend java classes yet (I am new to all this!), but I'll try to find out and let you know how I get on.
