Tips & Warnings
If you are using Mozilla's Thunderbird for your email, you will have to download and install the stationery add-on. Once the add-on is installed, you can click on the "Write," "Reply," or "Forward" and select "Other Stationery" for a list of stationery options.
This will only work with email editors which can see a Rich Text Format. If you use a web-based email like Gmail or Yahoo, you will not be able to create emails with stationery.
