And what will the parameter file do with the email notification once it receives it?

What I understand is. In the receipients email address he want to pass mail address list file. Which contains all the mail ids of the receipnts. It may be 50 or 100. Is this possible by using mail notification activity or how can we achieve this issue.

Actually, the post says it contains some of the names. Not sure where the rest will come from.

You'll need to read the file in and use the resulting string to populate a Job Parameter for use in the stage. Or if the list is 'too long' or you want people to get individual emails, you'll need to craft an iterative solution.

Either a Sequence with the dreaded User Activity Variables plus the Start Loop and End Loop stages looping around the Notification Activity stage passing one address at a time, or forget the whole 'stage' approach and script something using 'sendmail' or 'mailx' or whatever...
