How can I create an email template and send to someone and then the person can make edits right in their email account?
Is there a way I can do this with mailchimp or there is another service for it?
Used my browser's developer tools to inspect element and made my edits
You can use Mailchimp's mc:edit feature!
Mark any element with a unique mc:edit="identifier" and that area becomes editable under the DESIGN tab in the templates area in your MC account.

I have a requirement in which email notification we have to provide a link which will redirect approver immediately to the approval page. I found one relevant solution mentioned in below URL
URL :-
https://www.vandeveldejan.com/create-an-approval-notification-with-visualforce-email-template-containing-quote-and-quotelineitems/
which says to create visualforce component, I wanted to check if we can user LWC instead of visualforce.
As I am new to LWC expecting some help to understand if we can call LWC component inside Visualforce Email Template.
I have followed the same steps but wanted to know If I can use LWC compoenent or Aura instead of VF page compoenent

No.
Think about it. You want to create an email that on opening would immediately start a browser (hope the user is logged in to salesforce) and navigate to some page? without user clicking anything? That'd be a security nightmare. Can I send you an email which will use your Amazon account to order some stuff for me ;)
You can't run javascript inside emails (and even if you could - email clients should block it) so no LWC runtime... How would it even login to SF to pull data?
You need to learn Visualforce for this email template or send the email straight from apex (write the email's plaintext/html body with apex)
You can create public community, create public page and add your custom AURA or LWC component. Then copy link to this public community with your new page and add recordId in URL. I did this in Lightning AURA.
The customer in Netsuite gets an email with the generated invoice attached as a pdf. The requirement is to change the body of the email. I am unable to locate the template that has this info to modify. Please advise.
The current body of the email is:
"Please open the attached file to view your Invoice.
To view the attachment, you first need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you don't have it yet, visit Adobe's Web site http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html to download it."
`Customize-->Transaction Forms-->Whichever invoice form you're using`.
Under this form you should be able to choose which email template to send.
To find this email template,
Customize-->Transaction form PDF/HTML layouts
Under this menu you should be able to select and customize the email template however you want. Make sure the template you edit corresponds to the template that is showing on the form.
You may need to or have the desire to enable advanced/PDF/HTML templates, which allows you to edit and customize forms in a much more robust fasion using HTML/XML/CSS, Freemarker, and BFO. (See suiteanswers: 48703)
I know the original post is several years old, but I too found myself searching for answers recently in stackoverflow so I thought I would post the answer to this questioon.
Use the global search bar to type in Email Template. You can customize from there. I've attached a screenshot that replaces the generic message
"Please open the attached file to view your Invoice.
To view the attachment, you first need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you don't have it yet, visit Adobe's Web site http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html to download it."
It has been awhile since I found and got this email template to work, so it is possible there may be another section where you have to set the preference to use this customized email template.
I have created a Newsletter template on MailChimp and exported the template. I have also used the CSS Inliner tool to convert the HTML Code.
But How do I use this code to send the email from my outlook account?
Thanks in Advance for your help.
For this, you can use the import > import as text button in Outlook on the saved HTML file and it should populate into Outlook. (ref)
Open Outlook
Select the Create New-Email icon from the menu bar
From the top navigation menu options choose Insert
Select the Attach File icon
Navigate to the HTML file you want to insert
Select the file (highlight it)
From the Insert Drop Down Menu select Insert as Text
See this answer for more details on Outlook 2016: Getting my HTML into Email
Please keep in mind a couple things:
Outlook strips out all media queries when it sends, effectively removing responsive design
Outlook rewrites your code into Word HTML, which can cause discrepancies in functionality and display
MailChimp usually keeps proprietary code inside of its templates that are not read by other email clients and can cause issues
You need to ensure all CAN-SPAM regulations (physical address, unsubscribe ability) are still displayed inside the email or potentially face fines up to $10,000 per email that violates it.
Is there any way to disable link tracking for certain links when sending emails from Rails through sendgrid?
My recent search brought me here. I hope my late answer might help someone else in a similar situation.
Yes, there are ways:
(kind of a hack): Modify the links so that SendGrid does not accept the format(but still renderable in mail client), such as to omit http:// or to add spaces around = in the anchor tag. For example: Not Tracked
The official way: Add a clicktracking=off inside the anchor tag to tell SendGrid not to track it. For example: <a clicktracking=off href="http://sendgrid.com">Not Tracked</a>
You can now turn this on and off easily within SendGrid, see the docs. There is also an option to brand your tracking links with your own domain. This requires setting some DNS settings but means you have your own links in emails and they also get tracked.
I'm looking to create a new contact form for enquiries on Magento. Creating a module from scratch for this seems like a bit of a waste of time. Does anyone know the most sensible and quickest way for this to happen?
Thanks!
In CMS>Manage Pages create and enable a new page (or you could use a static block) e.g. call the page My Contact Form with a url ID of my-contact-form and a layout that matches your theme. For the content of the new page add
{{block type='core/template' template='contacts/mycontactform.phtml'}}
Now in your template folder (app/design/frontend/default/default/template/contacts for default theme in Magento 1.3.x) copy the existing form.phtml file, rename it to mycontactform.phtml and copy it back to the contacts folder. Edit the new mycontactform.phtml code and html as you wish to create your new contact form.
Load the new form by going to http://www.example.com/my-contact-form
Hope that helps...
In adendum to paj answer: You also have to edit the email template to include whatever new fields you just added.
Keep in mind that both your new contact form and Magento original contact form (an whatever future contact forms you may add in the future with in this way) will all use the same email template.
So in order to have meaningful emails sent, you need to "program" the template using the {{depend}} directive
