I'm having a bit trouble, defining an auto action that fires, when a user changes specific fields in his profile.
I need to send an email, if a user changes one or more of four specific fields of his profile. If other fields are modified, the trigger should not fire.
I have tried:
Type: Email
Trigger: onBeforeUserUpdate (tried also onBeforeUserProfileSaveRequest)
Conditions: Field "lastname" Not equal To [lastname]
How would I accomplish what I plan to do?

To act on a field change you'll need to use the below usage.

Global
Triggers: onAfterUserUpdate
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Conditions
1: [var1_FIELD_NAME] Not Equal To [var3_FIELD_NAME]

Replace FIELD_NAME with the name of the field you want to check against. var1 is the updated value for the field and var3 is the previous value for the field. This checks to see if the current value of the field changed from the previous.
