Yeah, I thought so too at first. But everything works fine if I access the email view directly. I ended up targeting the email render to an iframe, then doing a javascript redirect, which works well and solves my earlier problem of facelet tags not being rendered. Its a hack, I have no way to know if the email was sent successfully, but it works. thanks Dustin View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4056961#...
