ExtraView provides a number of powerful email notification features. As a general default, ExtraView sends email to:
When you observe email notification received in HTML format (the default), the fields within the notification is color coded. Unless your administrator has changed the defaults, the colors signify the following:
| Black | This signifies that the value of the field that did not change when the issue was updated |
| Red | This signifies that the value in the field has altered in the update to the issue. Observe that in a newly recorded issue, all the fields will be colored in red |
| Green | This signifies that the value has changed in the last update to the issue |
| Grey | The value was deleted in the last update to the issue |
Note: Rich text HTML Area fields are not colored witihn any notification. This is because they are rendered exactly as the text within the field is colored. This might include any number of colors within a single field.
A number of the email functions are accessible only by those users who have administration privileges. These include enabling/disabling email notification system-wide, disabling notification by User Role, and some of the Interest list functions. For example, only administration users can setup and manage product interest lists and field or metadata specific interest lists. Despite these restrictions, however, regular users also have a number of different options. The email functions that can be controlled by the individual user are detailed below.
