Purpose

Tired of sending a user an email and posting a message on their talk page to tell them you have sent them an email? If you are, then use this template to notify email recipients instead.

The template does not require substitution.

Usage

Any of the following:

Code	Result	Note
{{You've got mail}} or {{ygm}}
{{You've got mail|subject=Subject Line}} or {{ygm|subject=Subject Line}}		"Subject Line" will be replaced with the Subject of your e-mail.
{{You've got mail|sig=~~~~}} or {{ygm|sig=~~~~}}		~~~~ will be replaced by your actual signature and timestamp.
{{You've got mail|dashlesssig=~~~~}} or {{ygm|dashlesssig=~~~~}}		~~~~ will be replaced by your actual signature and timestamp (for those who already have dashes or other separators in their custom sigs).
{{You've got mail|ts=~~~~~}} or {{ygm|ts=~~~~~}}		~~~~~ will be replaced by your actual timestamp.
{{You've got mail|tweet=yes}} or {{ygm|tweet=yes}}		The other signature options can be used as well.
