Tighter security restrictions in modern web browsers, operating systems, and anti-virus programs can also interfere with email triggers. We recommend testing published content in its final environment to determine if email triggers will work as expected.

I understand how to create the trigger for email; however, I am unclear on how to affect the content of that email.
