Customize the Send Email Message save action

Abstract

How to configure an email message using the ProcessMessage pipeline.

The Send Email Message save action sends an e-mail message every time a visitor clicks the Submit button on a web form. You can configure an email message in this save action using the ProcessMessage pipeline.

To configure an email message:

  1. Create a processor class using the following sample code: 

    using Sitecore.Form.Core.Pipelines.ProcessMessage;
// This processor adds a note to the end of the email body
  public class AddTextToBody
  {
    public void Process(ProcessMessageArgs args)
    {
      string additionalText = "<p>This message was sent using the Sitecore Web Forms for Marketers module.</p>";
      args.Mail.Append(additionalText);
      /*
       * it's also possible to modify SUBJECT, TO, CC and BCC message fields
       * args.Subject.Append(" subject text");
       * args.To.Append("; secondrecipient@mail.net");
       * args.CC.Append("; secondrecipient@mail.net");
       * args.BCC.Append("; secondrecipient@mail.net");
       * args.From = "sender@mail.net";
       */
    }
  }

  2. Register the new processor in the Sitecore.Forms.config file, before the Sitecore.Form.Core.Pipelines.ProcessMessage.ProcessMessage processor: 

          <processMessage>        
        …
        <processor type="YourNamespace.AddTextToBody,YourAssemblyName" />
        <processor type="Sitecore.Form.Core.Pipelines.ProcessMessage.ProcessMessage, Sitecore.Forms.Core" method="SendEmail"/>
      </processMessage>
