Email templates and formatting

I'm sure it has been asked many times, but I cannot find anything in the search post 2006...
Is there a way to provide custom formatting for emails that are sent out to users? The client would like to change the text of most of the emails to be a "bit more friendly" and also make it more obvious who the email has come from (better title, introductory text, footer, even HTML to that a logo can be linked to).
I just can't seem to see where this would be done.

Now, a wrapper - any way outgoing emails can be wrapped in a HTML wrapper so that common footers etc. can be added?
+1 for a way to customize standard default emails. Has anyone found a way to do this?
search for email locale

grep is your friend.
If you are using vanilla 2.1 - this is a pretty cool add-on
CustomizeText
you can search for words and make changes and it automatically updates locale.php
I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.
i just uploaded an addon to make own template for default vanilla mails
http://vanillaforums.org/addon/emailtemplate-plugin
it is very simply but you can extend it
@guillermofr: Very cool!
hey @peregrine , did the CustomizeText plugin disappear? I can't seem to find it.
it is still there. It's tricky to find.
I just typed "CustomizeText" in the search box here in discussions forum. and the links in the search showed it was available on github.
there are a number of addons you may not be aware of that reside in addons github and possibly nowhere else.
they may work for you, they are not advertised.
https://github.com/vanilla/addons
https://github.com/vanilla/addons/tree/2.1
https://github.com/vanilla/addons/tree/master/plugins/CustomizeText
you need to download the entire zip of the addons and extract out the plugin you want.
personally, I would try the master branch of addons first, and if that doesn't work try the 2.1 branch of the addon.
they may work for you, they may not.

@peregrine Oh, duh! I should have tried discussions ... was only searching addons. On your previous recommendation, I always check the master for plugins first - but this time just asked before I even checked there! Oops
Thanks YAP!
