Conditional Email Sending - Event Date: 19 Oct 2006 - 19 Oct 2006

Version 1.8 of Email2Db can now be set to send outgoing emails based on custom conditions.

On the Outgoing Email Message editor - create your email as normal. Then click the Conditional Send button. Enable the Conditional Send option and click the Edit button.

The script editor will open.

Here you can construct a script that sets the 'Email2DBSend' flag to True or False.

For example, suppose you have an extracted field called 'Customer'. You want to send a 'thank you' email only if the customer is Microsoft.

You would set the Conditional send script to:

Sub Main
If FIELDS_Value("Customer") = "Microsoft" Then Email2DBSend = True Else Email2DBSend = False
End Sub

When Email2DB processes the incoming email it will extract the fields. It will then send any outgoing emails. It will check any Conditional send scripts and only send those emails which have their Email2DBSend flag set to True.

Your Conditional send script can be as complex as you want.
