How to use

Add the "email" code block into your note:

... with plain text as body content:

```email
to: [email protected]
subject: My Subject
body: "Hey info,

  here is some content"
```

... with a referenced note as body content:

```email
to: [email protected]
subject: My Subject
body: [[MyMail4711]]
variables:
  myvar: TestVar
```

You can use the variables parameter to replace placeholders in your body text with the variable values. To include a variable in the body text just add a placeholder {{myvar}}. Variables from fontmatter data can be used as well.

... with a body text after the yaml:

```email
to: [email protected]
subject: Hello World
---
Hi there,
this is my new body
Best!
JB
```

... you can use properties, like variables, on the subject or within the body:

```email
to: [email protected]
subject: reminder for {{name}}
---
Dear {{name}},
this is not a personal email.
Regards,
FI
```

Parameter

You can customize the view with the following parameters:

1. The body can be appended after the yaml with a "---" separation
2. No formatting is supported (only new lines) (reason).
