Hi there,

Can anyone tell me how I can rewrite the email that is sent out after people hit subscribe to the newsletter? As a one-person team, and the domain is my first and last name dot com, it sounds ridiculous sending en email that is signed from “the team at [myfirstnamelastname]”. Same with the opening line, “Thanks for signing up for [myfirstnamelastname]”, lol.

Thanks.

I might be wrong here, but from what I know - you can edit the template by editing newsletter.html

The file is available under `core` **→** `server` **→** `services` **→** `mail` **→** `templates`

My bad, I obviously didn’t do a thorough search before asking. I find the topic’s been covered before here:

> [@Email Template Customization](https://forum.ghost.org/t/email-template-customization/9745):

> Congratulations on the work you are doing with Ghost. I didn’t find anything in the documentation about email customization. Is there a way to personalize the email that comes after the login / registration / payment process? Currently the same email and the same text always arrive.

Will try to fix it and hope it works 🙂
