Create download links for my eBook.

[Mike]

I sell many products on eBay. I would like to send out an email to the buyer to download my ebook. At first I thought of creating an auto responder for each product but I would like to know if there is a way to create just one autorely program and make it get the dowload information for each product.

You can setup a single email template for all your ebook purchases and have the program look-up the download information from a file.
You would need to create:

1. A message template for the autoreply message.
   
2. A text file with the personalized information that will be used in the auto reply email. This file will be used as your lookup file.
   
3. An autoreply responder to handle your PayPal emails.
   
4. A 'Text file' Extractor to grab the correct product information.
   
5. A 'Send Message' Action to use the extracted field to personalize the message.
   

Here is how you do it.

1. Add the autoreply responder from the following post - How to setup a ebay autoreply auto responder.
   This will walk you through the process of setting up a basic auto respsonder.
   
2. Once you have the basic responder working you can easily adapt it to work with your eBay PayPal notification emails.
   
3. Add a text file extractor and select the text file with the product information.
   
4. Select the fields to extract.
   
5. Select 'From the line that contain' and enter the text that can identify the line that you need.
   
6. Uncheck the 'Remove the extracted line from the file' field
   
7. Add a 'Send a new email' Action.
   
8. Include the extracted fields in the appropriate location of the message body.
   

Keywords: extract information from file.
