This plugin sends notification E-Mails about expiring assets.
More specifically spoken it searches for assets which fulfill a certain date-based condition and then determines a list of notification recipients for each asset found.
The primary use case is to send warnings about expiring usage rights to users who downloaded the expiring asset in the past.
To be configured in {home}/appserver/conf/custom.properties
You can define several expiration notifiers by incrementing the counter after expirationNotifier:
expirationNotifier.1.someProperty=...
expirationNotifier.2.someProperty=...
In the following documentation, 1 will be used as an example.
To apply a property to all notifiers, simply use default instead of the number, e.g.
expirationNotifier.default.someProperty=...
. Numbered properties will still override the default value if defined.
