In your email are line breaks within the lookup-context. I believe you have them in your code too - I just found out, that lookups do NOT work, if the whole lookup is not in one line.btw, you do not need [formvariables] in your append-context.And a tip: you should not name your own variables SKU or name, because one day you will accidently call a WebCat function instead of your variable - or a future update will do that for you :-) Name all your variables and form fields with a prefix, for example v_variable or v.variable or whatever you want, to avoid confusion with WebCat context.
