Is there a UI for editing Jira email templates? - email

Once Jira user create a ticket, there will be a notification email send to the reporter and assignee, and the mail subject might be "[Jira]".
I know we can modify the related template files to customise the subject, but it takes more effort to do that. Is there a UI for Jira administrator or user conveniently edit the email template?

If you only want to be able to update the [Jira] prefix in the subject of the notification emails then you can do that in the "Outgoing Mail" configuration screen. Just enter the "Prefix" that you would like.
Any other kind of customisation is not possible within JIRA by default. There is an open feature request to add an editor for the email templates: JRA-7266
There are a few add-ons that do provide functionality to configure notifications and templates in a more flexible way though. Some popular ones are Enterprise Mail Handler (available both for cloud and JIRA server) and Email This Issue (only for JIRA server).

Mailchimp like email templates for individual email / transactional email

Please, see the screenshot (of an email) that I received for my transaction.
I would like to create the similar email template for the users who interact on my site.
I really like mailchimp and it is email templates. But I cannot send a transactional email, triggered by the recipient's action like purchase confirmations etc. I came to know about mandrill, but I could not sign up for mandrill.
I want to know how these email templates (refer above screenshot) are created... is there any free website that I can use?
There is also something called Mautic. This is an open source marketing automation tool. Which has lots of possibilities and where you can also use your own email templates.
Hope this helps in a way!

Change subject in TFS 2015 email alerts

I'm trying to change the subject of email alerts generated by TFS 2015. So far, I figured out, where to find the template of the email body at
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 14.0\Application Tier\TFSJobAgent\Transforms\1033\BuildCompletedEvent.xsl
However, I still got no clue, where the subject of the email is set. Can anyone provide a hint?
Thanks in advance
We can only customize the format for TFS email alerts by default. The event service uses the .xsl and the plaintextXsl files to transform the XML data for an event into an e-mail message. Edit the .xsl file to get a different format for the email notification.
The content of the emails that are issued is automatically generated from the TeamFoundation.xsl file and BuildCompletedEvent.xsl. Modifying the TeamFoundation.xsl file is not recommended. You need to subscribe to the Event Service and create your own e-mails as DaveShaw mentions.
It is not allowed to modify email subject via modifying the email template in TFS2015.
You have to subscribe to TFS events via API, this method gives the option to set email subject you want. Check this blog for further information: http://geekswithblogs.net/BobHardister/archive/2013/07/24/tfs-2012-api-create-alert-subscriptions.aspx (The blog is written for TFS2012, applies to TFS2015 as well)  

Google gmail quickbutton action

I'm reading about the new development of Google quick action buttons in the mail inbox.
I'm a little bit lost in this topic and not understand how I can include this function in my emails.
I have read about DKIM/SPF but I don't know if this functionality could need to do an google app.
I have my mail server with marketing segmentation and I want this button is visible when email come to client (destiny) gmail inbox (guess only works in gmail....). If i have included the markup code in html in my emails, why i can't see this button?
would it need create a specific mail application to implement this feature and send emails from this app? Someone tried this?
I know maybe this has been reply before but i think must start more down... so.. sorry.
Thanks and regards!
When you are ready to launch your marked up emails to your users, you will need to register with Google. Please follow this process:
1.Send a real-life email coming from your production servers (or a server with similar DKIM/SPF/From:/Return-Path: headers) including the markup / schema to schema.whitelisting+sample#gmail.com.
2.If you send a test/blank email, an email that does not contain schema or if you don't send an email for review your application will be silently discarded.
3.Make sure that the markup is correct prior to sending the email. For more details see Testing your Schema. Especially make sure the email passes the Email markup Tester and that there are no errors, also make sure to include as much data as possible.
4.Gmail removes all markup when forwarding an email. Do not forward the email but send it directly.
Fill out the registration form available here.
Here is the link for the documentation.
Hope this helps!!
Are you sending a promotional email (offers, etc.)?
If yes, then you are likely to be delivered to the Promotions tab, where quick actions do not work (according to Litmus - https://litmus.com/ebooks/gmail-ebook/gmail-ebook/).
Quick Actions work best in the Inbox for transactional emails.
("Here is your booking confirmation" [Check-in now] quick action)
These typically arrive directly in the Inbox.

Sitecore WFFM, how to create separate "To" email address for languages

We have a form created and the send email action is created for when they click submit. After that, when I click the send email action a modal window opens where I can set the "To" and "From" email addresses.
Our issue is this, we have a client that is global. They want the form to use different languages. But for some reason the send email action does not allow for language versions. If I set it for English US, then go into french, it will have the same "To" email address for all of those.
Is there a way to have this field change per language culture?
We raised this with Sitecore support in the past (Ticket 412571). They acknowledged the issue but said the following;
Save Actions are not designed for multilingual setup. Each used action
from Save Actions is stored in a Form item in the Save Actions field,
which is marked as Shared and Unversioned. That’s why, you can’t add a
language version to your Send Mail action. We recommend using the
Email Campaign Manager for sending out emails in different languages.
So it would seem that your best bet is to start using ECM

ClearQuest Custom Email

I'm trying to create a custom email for ClearQuest in order to:
format the message more neatly
include a hyperlink to a change request (which is based on the Defect schema) on our local intranet
The only way I know of to send an email is to add an email rule using a static form submission via a Email_Rule Stateless Record Type (which comes with the Defect schema). The only customization it allows is to select the fields to include in the email, the criteria specifying when to send the email (e.g. when the state changes), and who to send it to.
I'm assuming a script is run (either in VB or Perl) in order to aggregate the information needed for the email and perhaps another to actually send the email. I'm looking for one or both of those scripts. Does anyone know where those scripts are located on a ClearQuest server?
I've come across various references from IBM that pertain to custom emails, but none were very helpful.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/4329.html (from 2003 and ClearQuest v1.1)
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/3931.html (from 2002, no version specified)
We're using ClearQuest v7.1.2. Does anyone know of any good references dealing with ClearQuest custom emails?
We are using Clear Quest Email Notification Package, that allows much more flexible email notifications.
Link
The package is compatible with ClearQuest 7.1.2.
You can download new version from the following location:
http://cqadmin.org/wiki/ClearQuest_Email_Notification_Package
Newer versions of ClearQuest have a new Email notification package that does what you want and is also robust to network failures and supports different email services and a high level of security. That is, the email is saved as a record and a service runs that ensures emails get sent.
The name of the package is EmailPlus and it also uses a WebApp, EmailRelay, which performs the email notification duties.
