[Building Sakai] Using the EmailTemplateService

[Aaron Zeckoski]

Mostly just the javadocs really. :-)

The simplest way to do this would be to create a spring bean (or use
an existing one) with an init method and then call
EmailTemplateService.saveTemplate(EmailTemplate emailTemplate) with
the content of your template. This will store the template which you
can then use from then on. You could check the date on the template
file(s) to see if it had been updated and then update the template(s)
in the database. There isn't anything to do this for you in the
service though so you will have to write some code to handle it.

Hope that helps.
