l Bcc: Specify discreet addresses (other recipients will not be able to see these addresses) to which
copies of the generated emails are to be sent.
l
Subject: Enter the subject of the emails generated by PlanetPress Image for this task. Note that if you
use a data selection in this box, you must be sure that the data that will be selected at run-time will not
contain any parentheses, as this would cause the task to fail. If you suspect that the data may contain
parentheses, you should use a Run Script action task (see "Run Script" on page 313) with a Strip()
function to strip them out.
l Message: Enter the content of the email message. Since this is a variable property box, the text may
be personalized using variables and data selections. Note that since this is a variable property box, its
content is parsed at run-time. If HTML code is entered or pasted in this box, percent (%) and backslash
(/) HTML characters must be doubled otherwise they will be disregarded.
Note
Different email clients have different support for various features, especially with HTMLemails. In most
cases, if you want to send your email as an HTML message, your very first line should start with
<html> or <!doctype html>.It should not be any other character). Also note that it is not currently
possible to send both an HTMLand plain-text version of your message.

task. Selecting the Attach output file(s) option adds these files at the top of the list. Any other file that
