Commands

Most of the commands listed here do not need to be entered manually. Instead, they may be entered using a corresponding dialog in the Inxmail Professional Client. Commands are only available in editors.

In Inxmail Professional there are two notations for commands:

The default notation is: [%Command].
For the special command [inx:replace] and for columns, the introductory % is omitted, e.g. [email], [first name].
