Sample: Send an e-mail message

Create a rule that sends an e-mail message when an event occurs.

What the rule does

Notifies the customer service representative when an imposition proof is generated.

Why it is useful

Subject: Type a message to appear on the subject line of the e-mail (for example, Imposition proof is ready).
