  2. Navigate to System logs > Email.
  3. Identify a notification associated to an incident and change the status to Sent.
  4. Navigate to the respective incident (of the notification).
  5. In the Activity Stream, find the entry by system for the Email Sent entry.
  6. Click he Show email details link.
