* Hi Haet,
* Great plugin, I going to use it on all my clients sites.
* Is it possible to use a filter function to exclude a plugin that uses its own
email template?
* The specific plugin is “Visual Form Builder Pro”
* Your advise would be much appreciated.

* Hi,
There’s a filter containing alle information about the email. If you can
detect the mail by subject, content or anything else just return FALSE to disable
the template: apply_filters( ‘haet_mail_use_template’, $use_template, array($
to, $subject, $message, $headers, $attachments) );

* Greetings Haet,
Love your plugin 🙂 Above, you mentioned ‘haet_mail_use_template’
Is this like ‘foo’ a placeholder for any string you want to intercept?
* Kind Regards,
* Yves

* Hello,
I’ve written a few examples [here](http://etzelstorfer.com/en/disable-wp-html-mail-template-for-specific-emails/)
to demonstrate how to disable the email template by subject or some keywords
in the message body.
