An email notification is an email message that corresponds to an Access Event (such as when a member of the group “Janitors” enters the “Main Office"), an Exception Event (such as when the “Front Door” is ajar for three minutes), a Device Event (such as when a motion sensor engages), or a Control Panel Event (such as when the control panel loses AC power).

Email notifications are sent to specific people under specific circumstances according to a set of notification rules. For more information, please see Managing Notification Rules.

Email notifications are formatted in plain text.
