PortalMailTemplates
-------------------

PortalMailTemplates provides a nice interface for customizing the emails sent
out by Plone.  You will first need to install the latest version of stripogram
(available from zope.org) and CMFFormController (available from the Collective).

Install PortalMailTemplates using the QuickInstaller.  After installation,
you can get to the mail management interface through the "Reconfigure portal"
link on the personal bar.

PortalMailTemplates has a number of features designed to work with
PortalNotifications (which is due for an overhaul).

Requires:
---------
  CMF 1.4+
  Plone 1.1+
  stripogram
  CMFFormController


Things you can do to help:
--------------------------

PortalMailTemplates could use some i18n work.  Right now it's set up for a
single language only, but i18n should be straightforward.  Mail templates are
pulled from a folder -- the main thing that would have to be done would be to
put other language versions of the template in the folder and add a language
argument to the method that grabs the template from the folder.

- i18n-ification

- I have installed some initial hooks for doing joint HTML/plain text
  mails.  It would be cool to get this all wired up.
