| - | ====== Notification Emails ====== | ||
| - | Sentori's Notification Email feature can trigger a simple text email to be sent when a contact performs an action, such as clicking a specific link or unsubscribing. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Sentori will mail merge the contact's details and information about the source of the notification (the email and the link from which they clicked). This means that a single notification email can be used in one or many contexts. | ||
