[Zope] Re: Squishdot mail notification.

[mcdonc@iqgroup.com]

A reply to a reply of my own message.

I ended up editing Squishdot_mail_html.dtml.  For some reason I had to
hardcode the admin address into the file instead of using var
admin_address.

All works fine now.

Go about your business.

Thanks,

Chris
