Would be nice for it to be possible (maybe even build in by default) for people to get an email explaining the delay if "sign up" generates an account request rather than giving them an account immediately. If this isn't possible already.

I need a working vocabulary to talk about stuff, so for now:

x+*send = setting pattern card

x+email config (or whatever card referred to by setting pattern card) = email config card

+*to, +*cc, +*message, etc... = email fields (or email field cards).

within email field cards, there are 2 main types:

- email address fields (*to, *from, *cc, etc)

- email text fields (*subject, *message)

then there's *attach, which is a special case. (but no special working term needed for now)

Here are some things we need to test:

1. Does Wagn work with +*email cards? I remember this breaking before, but my automated tests suggest that my cleanup work fixed this. This should actually only work if:

-- the email address field is a collection (pointer, search) that has the *email card as an item

-- the last person to edit the email address field has administrator role (and can therefore read the *email card)

2. Can we make emails look decent if its only email address fields are *bcc and *from. If not, we need to hunt for workarounds.

3. Is it handling blank fields reasonably well?

blank fields show up as "Add <field> ". See your Wed, 9 Mar 2011 14:13:57 -0700 (that's your time) email for an example.

you can't currently use inclusions in address fields. it's not rendered.

for the blank fields see add EmailHtmlRenderer

so maybe this ticket is ready to close?

  --Ethan McCutchen.....Sun Apr 17 11:58:03 -0700 2011
