Hey there - this works just fine in advanced alerts. If you have a custom property for your nodes called ContactEmail, just use that in place of the To field like ${Node.CustomEmail}.

Yes..it works well....was looking into the same issue and saw your post. Makes it simple to have a single alert that serves multiple groups. Had copies of the same alert before to allow sending an email to the correct group.

Re: Alert Email with Variable as email address
adamras Sep 28, 2009 2:09 PM (in response to Tuchux)bump..
I have added ${Nodes.Custom_Email} to the To: field in my email alert. When I test it I get the error:
Error sending email for alert TEST ALERT OF YYC-FWMGMT. - The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address.
In the custom field I have a single email address that I know works.
Any ideas?
Thanks

dan_reeder@harte-hanks.com Nov 12, 2009 8:54 PM (in response to denny.lecompte)I have the same problem and submitted a support ticket. SW responded that it is a known bug that dev does not have a date yet for the fix.
Here is my thread..

It's inconsistent, but when you're filtering a resource you need to use nodes, plural. If you're using the variable in an alert it's node singular.
${node.contact_email} works, where ${nodes.contact_email} does not.
