If you wish to view or change these notifications, you can do so by selecting an email template from the list. Make your desired changes and click Save. To revert back to the default template, click on Reset to default.
You will be able to edit the text and formatting of the email. The following options are available: bold, italic, underlined, font, font size, font color, fill, align left, align middle, align right, justify, bullets, numbered lists, decrease indent, increase indent, format style, insert link, and insert image.
Resetting email templates to default
For each email template there is an option to reset them to default version. When you are clicking 'Reset template to default' button you will loose your changes and the template will be reverted to the initial version of the template.
Note
Getting the latest version for templates after upgrading MetaDefender Vault
From one version of MetaDefender Vault to another the default templates are subject to change. In order to get the latest templates after performing a product upgrade you should use 'Reset template to default' button for each template.
Note: by resetting the template to default you will loose any custom changes for that template.
Merge fields
A merge field is a placeholder that will be dynamically resolved before sending the specific notification. For example, inserting [%]DateAndTime[%] merge field in your template will result in the field being replaced with the actual date and time before sending the notification via email.
