Creating multiple "send email" alert actions?

[SewingMachine77]

I am trying to make email templates for the "send email" alert actions. So far I have edited the "alert_actions.conf" and put that in a new app I created. But what it is doing is just overriding the "send email" alert action and that's not what I want to do. What I want is to have multiple send email actions, Is there a way to not override the base "send email" action?

What I fear is I will have to create a copy of the "sendemail.py" and make a small edit then post that in my app in the bin folder. Then rename it like "sendSREemail.py"

alert_actions.conf:
[email]
label = SRE Email Template
icon_path = mod_alert_icon_email.png
from = xxxxx@xxxx.com
mailserver = xxxxxx.com
pdf.header_left = none
pdf.header_right = none
use_tls = 1
hostname = xxxxxx.com
message.alert = Alert: $name$\
Why am I receiving this alert? (Give a brief description of the alert and why this alert is triggering)\
\
How do I fix it?\
1. Step 1\
2. Step 2\
3. Step 3

Thanks again Splunk community.

We can't have more than one email action and it has nothing to do with sendemail.py.

Splunk does not allow more than one config file stanza with the same name.  If it finds more than one they are merged into a single stanza.

What if I wanted a different one for each app?

So if I put a alert_actions.conf in each app then each app could have different email parameters right?

Right.  The app context would make a difference.
