You can see it is quite complex with different folders for different languages and different pieces to it. Under there you can find more folders that dig even deeper and you can see all the different pieces of stationery in here. I can go and customize this particular email here with some text and then send it out.Īnother way you can customize it, if you are a kind of designer/hacker is to go into your hard drive level, go into Library/Application Support/Apple/Mail/Stationery. Now when I want to create a new message with this I can compose a new message, and then I can click on the stationery button here, go down to Custom and you can see I have "Work Party" and it fills all that stuff in. What I can do is to is say File/Save As Stationery and then give it a name. So this might be something that I want to reuse over and over aging just filling in some extra text here. Turn on the format bar so you can see things like fonts and colors and then you can compose your text and create something like this where I've created some text with some fonts and I've centered it and I've dropped in an image here and I've changed font sizes. Then you can compose a message here and use Rich Text. Make sure that in Mail, by the way, that you have it set to message format Rich Text or this won't work. So when you are composing a new message, you can go in here. Now you can also create your own stationery but maybe not at quite the level that you have seen in the examples. But if they are using something else, something older or something at work it may not look perfect. Obviously, if they are also using Macs and/or using iPads and iPhones it should display perfectly as Apple has designed it for that.
If they are just using a very basic email client or they are viewing it on an online web based email they may not be able to see it. Now one catch is that the person on the other end has to have something that can receive and display this complex email. So you have a lot of different options here and there is a lot of different things that come with Mail. It's got a background color and they usually have images and you can switch easily between these and in some cases you can even drag a photo to an area to customize the stationery. Often times you can change more than one text field. So you can select one of these and you get this rich text formatted html email and you can change the text in it to anything you want. For instance plain stationery, photos, things like that, sentiments. The button is right here stationery pane, and you have different categories that you can look through.
So you may or may not have noticed when you go to compose a new message in Mail you can choose from a bunch of stationery. On today's episode let's take a look at Mail stationery. Video Transcript: Hi, this is Gary with MacMost Now.
