The Mail workflow action extends the standard Sitecore email action which is included with the default installation. It is distributed as a standard Sitecore package.
The package includes the actual template for this action (the Extended email action), which inherits from the Sitecore Standard template. The extended email action template contains the following fields, grouped in the Parameters section:
To - the recipient's email address;
From - the sender's email address;
Subject - the subject of the email (allows using Velocity templates);
Message - the body of the email (allows using Velocity templates);
Mail server - the email server you'd like to use for sending emails; *Type - (the same as the Type field of the Sitecore Action template).
Sometimes it is required to get all Items in the database based on a given template. Iterating through the entire database may be a very expensive operation though.
However in this particular case, we can resort to the Link database. Link database is used by Sitecore to resolve all the linking issues - what referrers and what references the Item has. And if an item is based on a template, it also counts as a reference from the item to the template. The solution then is very simple: get all the referrers for a given template item.
These documentation topics concern the jQuery Templates plugin (jquery-tmpl), which can be downloaded from: http://github.com/jquery/jquery-tmpl.
A template contains markup with binding expressions. The template is applied to data objects or arrays, and rendered into the HTML DOM.
This website and its sample code creates a template of sorts, absent of design or layout, that will help you avoid some of the major rendering problems with the most common email clients out there - Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo Mail, etc. While not plug and play (you know, you'll have to do some work ;-), it will provide some helpful examples and snippets that will keep your email design rendering as true-to-form as possible.
