I am using FTPCaller. If I add the Emailer to the rejected port will it send me an email if the output gets kicked to the rejected port? I would have the Emailer already configured to send me an email. 

I want to double check with the Community since my workbench will stop running if the FTPCaller output is rejected. 

Here is a screenshot of a mock up workspace (note I have not set up the transformer parameters yet hence you see the red gear icons.)

 

Not shown below, I know it will send me an email if the FTPCaller output is sent to Output.

Yes, this should send an email if something is rejected by the FTPCaller. Keep in mind it will send one email per feature that's being passed to it so depending on your workflow you may be setting yourself up for a spam attack. If it's possible for multiple features to be rejected and you don't want to get a lot of emails you can add a StatisticsCalculator between them and only take the summary output.
