Associate the plugin with an agent group

Since this plugin is used pre-target, the target files still have the temporary names that they are given by the private agent in the operation. (The files will be given their "real" names, as defined by the operation's target, once they are moved to the target location.)

If you want to set your own names of the attached files you can do so by setting this variable. If there is only one target file, use SendEmail.AttachmentName to set its name. If there are more than one target files, use SendEmail.AttachmentName_2, SendEmail.AttachmentName_3, etc., to set the names of the second, third, etc. file.
SendEmail.OneAttachmentPerEmail Boolean Optional Controls the behavior if more than one attachment file is to be sent. If the value of this variable is true, one email per target file will be sent. If the value of this variable is false, all target files will be attached to a single email. The default value of this variable is false.
SendEmail.SendIfNoAttachments Boolean Optional Controls the behavior if there are no target files. If the value of variable is true, an email without attachments will be sent. If the value of this variable is false, no email will be sent. The default value of this variable is false.
SendEmail.LogLevel String Optional Sets the logging level for this plugin. Logging is turned off by default. The value should be one of the built-in levels defined by java.util.logging.Level. On private agents, the plugin log can be found under the directory <JITTERBIT_HOME>/log/plugin/.
SendEmail.Retries Integer Optional Set to the number of times you want to try sending the email if the initial attempt fails. The default is to not try to send it after an initial failure.
SendEmail.RetryWaitSeconds Integer Optional Set to the number of seconds to wait between each retry attempt. Used only if SendEmail.Retries is greater than 0. The default is to wait one minute (60 seconds) between retries.
