Kentico CMS sends e-mails for various purposes, such as workflow notification. You can modify the e-mail templates sent by the system so that they match your design and/or language.
You can modify e-mail templates in Site Manager -> Development -> E-mail templates.
There are two types of e-mail templates: global and site-specific. If there's no site-specific template, the global template is used instead.
The e-mail template has the following properties:
Display name
|
The name of the template displayed to the users.
|
Code name

The name of the template used in the code.
|
From
|
E-mail address that will be used as the sender (From) address of the e-mail.
|
Cc

|
Bcc

|
Subject
