Hi experts,

We are using rules extensively and it works great for us. We have several rules sending emails on node insert, update and delete of a certain content type, depending on various conditions and settings of the fields of this content type.

The issue we are having is that the operators of the service (website) would like to know in advance which emails will be sent when they press the 'Save' (or 'Delete') buttons, i.e. similar functionality as the 'Preview' button provides for checking how the post would look like, prior to saving.

How can I implement such a feature? Is it possible to trigger rules with say the node update trigger, provide it with the node, but instead of doing the actual actions (i.e. sending emails) have rules print out the actions? Any other ideas of how to approach the problem?

Many thanks,
Ron
