Hi @vikram

Are you talking to send email in FME Desktop with transformer Emailer? Or a Job executed in FME Server?

Thanks,

Danilo

If you need to filter or flag certain mails in your email client, I personally prefer using certain keywords in the subject line, e.g. "FAILED" or "SUCCESS". It's then easy to configure your email client to treat those mails differently.

@danilo_fmeThis is for FME Desktop.

@david_r This is notify the users that this email is of high importance.

The current emailer transformer does not support that functionality (maybe suggest it as an idea?).

 

 

The deprecated custom transformer PythonEmailer can probably be modified to do so by adding

 

msg['X-Priority'] = '1' at line 26. But I haven't tested that so YMMV.

I am reviving this post because I can’t see any positive answer yet.

Someone knows how to send a high-priority flagged email from a FME Flow automation notification system?

@australgis Not possible as for now. You should suggest it as a new idea if that’s needed :
