Every email Harness sends is kept as a record: who it went to, what it said, and what became of it. Emails Harness sends lists what triggers each one; this page covers where the record lives and what you can do with it.

Where it lives

Both lists run newest first. Each recipient gets their own copy of an email, and each copy is its own row: an invoice to two parents appears twice, and neither parent sees the other’s address.

What a row shows

Read a message

Click a row to open it. The panel shows who received it, when, the sending and reply-to addresses (click any address to copy it), and the email exactly as it arrived. Links inside the message are shown but don’t work: the record is for reading, not for acting on the recipient’s behalf. Attachments are listed by name. Where there is nothing to show, the panel says why: mail sent before Harness kept email content has no body to display, and a send that failed before an email was composed has none either.

Send a message again

One action on each row (the menu, or the button on the open message), with two labels: Try again uses the contact’s current address, so correcting a typo and retrying proves the fix in two clicks. The resend lands in the list as a new row with its own status, and opening it shows which email it copies, with a View original link. Invoices resend differently: Send again on an invoice re-runs the invoice’s own send, with today’s figures, a fresh PDF, and the invoice’s recipients. The confirmation says so before anything sends. Resending isn’t offered while a message is still sending, when its address is no longer receiving mail, or when the original wasn’t recorded fully enough to copy. Wait a few minutes between resends of the same message.
