Changing the mail content - Someone has started following me

Hi 
I would like to change the content of the mail sent to the user that is triggered when some one starts following that user. Please let me know how can this done, thanks.
Regards,
Senthil

I don't think it can be done.  The contents/formatting of that message are hard coded in some of the .dlls used by SharePoint.  The words and phrases used are most likely stored in the .RESX files used by the system for localization.  So
you could edit the wording by editing those, but you won't be able to change the overall layout of the message or add additional dynamic information.  I also don't recommend changing the .RESX files used by the system since they could be over-written
by any update that is applied to the system.

  • Changing E-Mail Contents?

    Dear SDNers,
    I followed the steps mentioned in the URL http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/33/d494c86203ea40b7b44ddd471baab1/frameset.htm for changing the text of the mail which is sent to the Users.
    Here i have two questions:
    1) In the link mentioned above, it says that there are few placeholders of which "Free text. This is the text that the administrator or user can add in a text box, for example when creating a new user. In general, the free text placeholder should never be removed." I want to know how this placeholder of can be used.
    2) I did some modifications in the notificationTexts.properties file as per thr link above and modified the TEXT_CREATE_PERFORMED tag. But i want to know when and where each tag is used for. I mean for what requirement i have to change which tag. for ex there is one more tag TEXT_CREATE_BY_BATCH_PERFORMED for user creation.
    Also if i want to modify the mail text, what would be best to modify the or the tab directly?
    Please help on this...
    Regards

    I also forgot to note that this problem also persists with the new iBooks application. I cannot get past the 'Get Started' screen or access the iBooks Store. Again, all top bar menus are unresponsive.

  • Changing the email Content for the Contact Person Creation

    How to change the email content?.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    Pl. follow the following steps :-
    1. Create smartforms containing your own content to be sent to contact persons.
    2. Implement the BADI : BBP_OUTPUT_CHANGE_SF.
    3. There is one interface(method) in the above BADI e.g. :change_forms.  You have to call smart forms in this interface.
    I hope you may achieve your task by following the above steps.

  • Email Notification need anyone changes the PCD content..

    Hello,
    Can someone give me a solution for this issue.
    An email should be sent to a person if someone has changed the PCD content. Can be an iveiw property, role property, workset property etc,.
    Or if any thing is created or modified in PCD i should get an email notification that so and so content has been modified by so and so person.
    Regards,
    Krishna

    Hello Krishna,
    As far as regarding to your question there is no built in functionality with portal. Email notification for subscription and notification service can be configured in the portal as:
    Sys admin - System Configuration - Knowledge Management-Content Management - Utilities-channels - email channels  by this you can configure the communication channels available in the portal. However this is used to send information to the users.
    Also the email notifications are used in the User Management where the user profile changes can be tracked by the Administrator, similarly for tasks and notification's we can configure the UWL for the email communication.
    Some of the useful links are:

    Creating An Import File For UME From Excel
    In these there are threads which explain you some concepts of Collaboration rooms by which you can track the details of PCD and also like the System landscape monitoring.
    I hope this information would give you an idea as of how email channel could be used in portal where in as specific to your question i think we need to build an application and try integrate it with portal to test it.
    Thanks,

  • How to edit the mail content

    Actually iam Oracle Developer, got some issue related to Java.
    There was some code written in Java for the Email's to be sent to customers.In this code they have used some hardcoded text aswell as database fields.Everytime users want to change the email content, they have request the developer to do so, which is a hectic task.
    Now iam looking is there any possibility either in java or Oracle to resolve this issue,like
    user on himself can change the context and those changes should apply in future aswell.

Of course the program can be modified to make it easier for the user to provide tailoring but the devil is in the detail and you haven't really given any and in any case the question is far too general. Since you posted this in the "New To Java" forum it seem likely you should start with the Java tutorial. Google is your friend.

  • Customizing the Mail Content

    Hi Gurus
    I would like to customize the content of the email , which is triggered when the status is changed.
    In the standard smart form, only Message number and Description of the message are included.
    I would like to include  - Message processor name and Status of the Message also into the mail content.
    Could anyone help me out to do this.
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Hi Ragu
    Thanks for your reply. But , if you could let me know, the variables which represent these fields (i.e
    Message processor and Status ), it would be really helpfull.
    Just like for message number we have orderadm_h-object_id, what could be used for Message processor and status?
    Thanks in advance

  • Can we change the label of Java Web start at the time of downloading applic

    can we change the label of Java Web start at the time of downloading application?
    At the time of downloading application(jar files) java web start shows "Downloading Application" lable on it window , so can we change it so some other..

    The 'splash' screen might be of interest to you.
    Here is the quick description from the FAQ.
    <http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/javaws/developersguide/faq.html#206>
    Section 3.5 of the JNLP Spec. has more details on using a splash screen for an application.
    (But if you mean changing the very first screen seen when downloading an application the first time, the answer is 'no'.)
    Late addendum..
    By the way - now I review your question, I note you stress 'while jars are downloading'.
    There is another strategy you might take. Mark most of the application jar's as 'lazy' download, get the main GUI on-screen quickly, then use the JNLP API's DownloadService to fetch the rest of the jars, after the application is running.
    This has the advantage that, then we can have complete control of whatever is shown on the screen during the bulk of the downloads. We might show ..a 'splash screen', or a dialog with the application name on it, or a progress dialog, ..or any combination of the three.

  • I have recently given away my old mac air to a friend. I want to change the mail settings so he can access his emails and not access mine

    I recently gave my old mac air (purchased new 2011) to my friend. I want to change the mail settings so that he can access his mail from the application and not mine. So far we have gone to mail then preferences then general and changed the email address to his but upon relaunching the mail application, it didn't seem to have worked. The mailbox was empty of either his or my emails. Ali

    Follow these instructions: What to do before selling or giving away your Mac.
    Your friend will need to install his own OS X system as weill as purchase his own App Store software. He/She cannot use yours. Since the machine has been wiped your friend can configure his/her own Mail account.

  • When I receive and answer e-mail, the correspondence is usually "nested" with the original message, and the number of replies, etc. are indicated with a number next to the original message.  How can I change the mail settings so that every reply is listed

    When I receive and answer e-mail, the correspondence is usually "nested" "behind"  the original message, and the number of replies, etc. are indicated with a number next to the original message in the inbox.  How can I change the mail settings so that every reply is listed individually in the inbox instead of having them "stacked" behind the original message.  I'm afraid I might accidentially overlook messages the way they are handled now.

    Somebody here will correct me if I'm wrong, but what you have to do is go into Settings, Mail/Contacts/Calendars and under Mail, turn off "Organize by Thread".  I think that will make each message show individually.

  • I have been backing up my photos to an external hard drive. I usually choose the photos, copy and paste them to the EHD. It has started saying "an item named "unnamed.jpg" already exists in this location. I don't know what to do.

    I have the MacBook OS X 10.5.8, 2.4 GHz, 2 GB. I have been backing up my photos to an external hard drive since I purchased it. I usually choose the photos, copy and paste them to the EHD. It has started saying "an item named "unnamed.jpg" already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the one you're moving? Don't replace/Stop/Replace". I don't know what to do.

    Thanks Jim, I kind of thought that was the answer, but was hoping against hope that I was just missing something. Like I said, it's not a big problem. One work around I've found is to name a folder on the external hard drive the same as the name I give the folder to import to and then choose this folder to back up to. I still get a subfolder inside that folder named Imported on...... but at least it's in the folder with my chosen name.
    Thanks again,

  • My Macbook Pro will not boot up. I can hear the sound that it has started and then goes into an infinite loop.

    My Macbook Pro will not boot up. I can hear the sound that it has started and then it goes into an infinite loop.

    What model MBP and which version of OS X? Sounds as if the hard drive may have failed. If you have an installation disc, try booting with it. If your machine came with Lion or Mountain Lion, try booting to the Recovery partition - Command and R keys held down while booting.

  • Using the Mail content and Mail Attachment in the mapping

    Hi,
    I have a requirement in which I need to read a file from the mail server and I am using the sender mail adapter for this. I have to convert the attachment of the mail in to the payload. To do this I am using the payload swap bean and mail transform bean. Now the issue is I have to get the information from both attachment and the mail content and need to map it to the target message. Please let me know how to do this.
    Thanks!
    ~Vaas

    Not sure if there is a staright forward way to achieve this.
    But I can think of a work around for your scenario.
    >>To do this I am using the payload swap bean and mail transform bean.
    Instead of doing it this way, try
    1. Message Transform bean that will transform the payload(content of the mail) to XML.
    2. PayloadSwapBean to switch Payload and Attachment.
    3. Message Transform bean to transform the attachment to XML.
    4. Custom adapter module to read the attachment, contnet and create your own desired XML.
    Alternatively, step 4 could be replaced by a Java mapping doing the same operation.
