Thank you for your email, I had omitted the receiver and tried this below
and it came up with an error message that i must specify a default receiver
route:
routes: [ { receiver: send_email, continue: true}, { receiver:
send_email2 } ]
Plus in your last statement, is it possible to have just one send_email
reciever configured for two email addresses?
