Conditional Statements in Email Templates

[mikelegg]

How do you create a "not equal to" conditional statement in an Email Template?

 

I tried {if $client_company_name not eq "WHMCS"} but that errors

 

I tried {if not $client_company_name eq "WHMCS"} but that does the opposite of what you would expect.

I ended up using

{if $client_company_name eq "WHMCS"}

{else}

... do something

{/if}

 

It's not elegant but it works, I'd still love to know the correct syntax
