SMTP doesn't work with email tokens

It is not the purpose of this module to convert tokens, but to provide an alternate method of sending e-mail, other than the default PHP method. The tokens should be converted by the module with which you used to create the message.

I don't know, as I don't use them.

I am having the same problem, and would appreciate someone looking into it. I can't believe that it is a problem with the core Drupal system. The tokens that are described in the Action configuration are passed directly through (i.e., the e-mail that is sent includes the token variable names in the body of the e-mail, exactly as they are written).

I am not a programmer in any sense, but I am somewhat tech savvy. My first thought is that the contents of the Subject and Body are passed into/through the SMTP module as strings/literals, rather than being (pre)processed for tokens.

If anyone has any input on why this could be happening, or how to work around it, I would be greatly appreciative.

There currently is no patch, so setting status to "active".

jairgee, that's very unlikely. The SMTP module only inserts itself on the process of sending (drupal_mail_wrapper). The "tokenization" happens inside hook_mail implementations (you can read about it on the Drupal API). By the way, one of the tokens on the issue description is misspelled.

Closing very old (dead) issues, if you think this is still relevant please re-open.
