Description
From the discussion on how to inform better our users about new features:
http://lists.autistici.org/thread/20190514.135515.b4450a59.en.html
Right now people receive something like this:
https://redmine.tails.boum.org/code/issues/16888
It is:
- Unappealing and probably off-putting for most people
- Incomplete as it doesn’t include screenshots for example
- Hard to read and scan due to markdownish syntax and plain text
Sending HTML emails to amnesia-news might increase its popularity. For example, receiving release notes with their screenshots could help letting people know about new features.
rss2email seems to have some options to handle HTML emails:
HTML conversion
html-mail
True: Send text/html messages when possible. False: Convert HTML to plain text.
use-css
Use CSS
css Optional CSS styling
html2text options
unicode-snob
Use Unicode characters instead of their ascii psuedo-replacements
links-after-each-paragraph
Put the links after each paragraph instead of at the end.
body-width
Wrap long lines at position. 0 for no wrapping.
Next step is to test rss2email capabilities.
