eMail variables
In the "new links" email section the template puts URL, descripttion,... in the text to be sent.

I'd like to use this for other eMails too. I tryed to put the recipients eMail in this text (to generate an unsubscribe string) but I get always my text like <%email%>.

Did I something wrong or is this exchange not possible in NOT "new links" emails.

Is there any list of varibales to use?

I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to do. Could you use the names of the routines and templates you are trying to make work, and list your steps exactly?

This is a complex problem, we all have to be on the same page :)

Yes, It is a little bit difficult to explain.

In Links 2.0 we have the New Links eMail and eMail to a selected User List. While sending a eMail via Links 2.0 I can use variables like <%URL%> within my eMail-Text and I am able to generate customized eMail to every recipient.

In Links Sql 2.0.3 I can find this in "New Links" also.
I currently changed no code, just using the current tools without any change in this areas.

I want now use this <%URL%> in other eMails of Links SQL.
You can find an example in the "New Links" template.
How can I improve now this template with a Link to remove a User from the list he is subscribed to? (Have a look at the bottom of Links 2.0 "New Link" eMails).

Are the are other variables which I can use in Mailings (like: <%email%>, username, description, Custimized table columns...)?
