    I have something similar except the message bodies are in a user (administrator) editable template which gets "mail-merged" with documents before sending. Within the body of the template are fields like "<<name>>" and "<<status>>" which match item names on the documents with which they are merged. This allows simple text substitutions to take place customizing the email before it is sent.

    I have a system that has been in production for about 8 years that sends out thousands of custom messages each year to give the users the status of their particular submission as it moves through the workflow. (http://rficsubmission.org)

    But my templates have been limited to plain text. Now that you've shown me how to add an HTML component I'm going to have to think about adding that functionality.

    Thanks Jake!
