Diferent email configurations

[manojd55574250]

I see 2 different Email Notification Service. AEM 6.4

Task Email Notification Service: com.day.cq.workflow.impl.email.TaskEMailNotificationService

Day CQ Workflow Email Notification Service: com.day.cq.workflow.impl.email.EMailNotificationService

May I know the difference between them and also different use cases.

Hello Manoj,

1. com.day.cq.workflow.impl.email.TaskEMailNotificationService config listens to the task events and generates email notifications about work items or tasks. Usually, notification is sent to inbox. Review doc [1].

2. com.day.cq.workflow.impl.email.EMailNotificationService config can be configured in case you desire to receive email notifications from workflows. For example, if you want to send an email on completion of a certain workflow. Please review [2].
