Mailing supports Eclipse's Jakarta (jakarta.mail) as well as Oracle's JavaMail (javax.mail) implementation as originally defined by the JavaMail project.
By default, Jakarta is used. This possibly must be switched to JavaMail in certain environments that don't "interact" well with Jakarta. E.g., WebLogic uses Oracle's original implementation when using their mail-sessions as it should be done in that container. When using JavaMail, such a mail-session must be specified in the beetRoot configuration.
Check the configuration cfg/beetroot.cfg for further mailing options. Some of them can be even overwritten by the application "Settings"; check the "Settings" page in the beetRoot Web application.
Mail templates are located in the following directories and follow the same lookup-patterns as for HTML templates:
HTML format:
- web/html/en/email
- web/html/de/email
- web/html/email
- etc.
Text format:
- txt/html/en/email
- txt/html/de/email
- txt/html/email
- etc.
beetRoot can send both HTML and text emails. Formats are configured with the parameter mail_formats.
NOTE: Java mail doesn't allow sending HTML with a head nor body-tag, hence you only are able to define HTML templates with tags that would be inside of a the body-tag. It is specification!
