Using templates

Templates are text modules that you can write once and then insert into your emails as often as you like. As a result, you only have to write frequently used phrases once. Templates, signatures and email drafts differ in the following ways:
  • Templates can be inserted into an email multiple times at any place and can be edited.
  • A signature will be inserted automatically at the email’s beginning or end.
  • An email draft is a complete email including recipients, attachments and the text which is either completed or a draft.
