Thank you for your reply.

I am looking for a way to debug the current "built in" method to send notification using rules .
As i mentioned using plain text email alfresco is working fine but i need to use templates to send descriptions and files details in mail body.

In attachment you find a screen of the share website.
Thank you and regards.

You can refer the templates located under :
Company Home > Data Dictionary > Email Templates > invite

Then modify the template file based on your requirement.

Also make sure, the errors/exceptions are not suppressed. Open up the logger info/debug statements from log4j.properties file, restart the server and check the
functionality again. You may get an error on console.
