Error getting a templated email containing @extends to send.

Essentially, when I make a base template for emails and I try to extend it using <@extends...>, I get the following error when Nuxeo should send email :

10:56:25,864 ERROR [runtime] 

on line 1, column 1 in modif extends not found.
The problematic instruction:
----------
==> user-directive extends [on line 1, column 1 in modif]
----------

I've read that this seems to be that it can't find the file I'm referring to, which is in the same directory.

I then tried to deploy it to nxserver/nuxeo.war/skin/, which also fails with the same error.

Is it really a file location issue?

To me it sounds like a parser error, as if it didn't know what to do with the @extends directive.

How does your mail template look like ?

I guess it's because the <@extends> directive is not available in the ftl rendering engine of the notification service. It will only work in a WebEngine ftl rendering engine.
