Hello everyone, 

 

how can I bold certain text elements in the message's body please ?

ex:

Result: 4526 errors with Call  function.

4526 = $result.nb$

Call = $result.ft$

 

All the answer i've seen about this subject suggest to modify the sendemail.py file
But i can't modify this file.

I also tried to but <b></b> around the text i wanted bold with no result, in the mail i got this : <b>4526</b>

 

After this, i wanted to find a way to test the mail alert. 

I tried the : sendemail [email protected] subject="" message="" sendresults=true

But always the same error : command="sendemail", 'rootCAPath' while sending mail to:

How can i test mail alert please ?

 


Thanks.
