Question
In a .net system I'm building, there is a need for automated e-mail notifications. These should be editable by an admin. What's the easiest way to do this? SQL table and WYSIWIG for editing?
The queue is a great idea. I've been throwing around that type of process for awhile with my old company.
Answer
From a high level, yes. :D The main thing is some place to store the templates. A database is a great option unless you're not already using one, then file systems work fine.
WSIWIG editors (such as fckeditor) work well and give you some good options regarding the features that you allow.
Some sort of token replacement system is also a good idea if you need it. For example, if someone puts %FIRSTNAME% in the email template, the code that generates the email can do some simple pattern matching to replace known tokens with other known values that may be dynamic based on user or other circumstances.
