Modifying outgoing emails in MasterStudy consists of two parts:&#x20;

* [**Email Branding**](#email-branding) - update the **visual elements** such as header & footer images, logo, and footer text.
* [**Email Templates**](https://docs.stylemixthemes.com/masterstudy-lms/lms-pro-addons/email-manager/email-templates) - modifying the **texts (main content)** of the email templates.&#x20;

{% hint style="success" %}
By typing <kbd>{</kbd> you can get the list of available Smart Tags that can be used in any field of the email message, even in the subject.  Alternatively you can use the special <kbd>Add Smart Tag</kbd> button.&#x20;
