If you are using your own email provider, the sender format should be From Name <fromemail@example.com>
If you are using the built-in Email account the sender address will automatically be set to Your Business Name <noreply@appfarm-mail.com>. You can however override the part before the Email address by setting this property.

The plain text mail. If you provide a message in HTML, you must also provide the plain text version in this field. This is used as a fallback for email clients that do not support HTML.
Most newer Email clients can read HTML Emails. This property is used to provide the HTML version of your Email. This gives you the possibility to send "fancy" Emails with CSS styling and images (files) included.

An optional field with the name of the recipient. The field only applies if the Recipient field contains a single recipient Email.

In these fields, you can type in more E-mail addresses, where the copies of your Email will be sent.
You can send one or multiple files as attachments with your Email. For this to be set up, you need a File Object Class data source, which you can set to Cardinality One or Many, depending on how many attachments you want to be able to upload to this E-mail. Notice you can also add multiple different data sources as attachments.
