Hi,
it’s possible to use HTML format for an email message triggered from Event. Using HTML tags in Message filed is quite “character” consuming and for text can be just 4000 characters long.
Is there any way how to extend message? Does IFS consider to change this limit?

If you’re willing to use PLSQL Events (or Workflows) you can trigger the mail sending through a custom PLSQL Package Method where the mail is sent using a CLOB for Command_SYS.Mail which will alleviate your size concerns.
I’m using this to send emails that even contain CSS tables formatted through HTML that are quite long in length.
Whether the mail itself is sent as plain text or HTML depends on your MAILSENDER configuration, so there’s no way to “define” the event action itself as HTML, the event action just defines the message, and it will be parsed as HTML or plain text when the email is sent depending on that.
Moreover fnd_event_action_tab.action_parameters column is a CLOB type. As I remember application interface only allows You to put 4000 characters but You can upload to CLOB column more characters through PLSQL Developer.
