Direct Mail has long been compatible with Apple Mail stationery (where it appears in the “Legacy” section of Direct Mail’s template chooser). However, Apple is removing Apple Mail stationery from macOS 10.14. This will not present a problem for most customers, since stationery is rarely used these days.

If you do, however, still use Apple Mail stationery for your email campaigns, you can prepare by reading the instructions below.

In the New group, click New Items, point to Email Message Using, and then click More Stationery. Under Choose a Theme, click the theme or stationery that you want, and then click OK. Compose and send your message. Turn off Outlook stationery and themes. Click the File tab. Under Compose messages, click Stationery. Dec 19, 2020 Email.

What happens when Apple Mail stationery is removed from macOS 10.14?

Unless you take the steps outlined below, you will lose access to Apple Mail stationery once you upgrade your Mac to macOS 10.14. This means that when you view your message in Direct Mail, it may appear to be missing images (including background images).

Apple’s Mail app will no longer allow users to compose messages using stationery. Apple Mail users will still be able to receive and read email that was sent using stationery.

How do I know if I am using Apple Mail stationery?

In Direct Mail, you can find Apple Mail stationery in the template chooser under the 'Legacy Templates' section (which is hidden by default). Here are the names of the legacy Apple Mail stationery templates that will be going away:

  • Air Mail
  • Baby
  • Bamboo
  • Banners
  • Butterfly
  • Daisies
  • Dinner
  • Dinner Party
  • Doodles
  • Dots
  • Flower
  • Formal Invite
  • Fun
  • Get Well
  • Gift
  • Heart
  • Lunch
  • Maple Leaf
  • New Address
  • Party
  • Picnic
  • Postcard
  • Pssst
  • Sand Dollar
  • Save the Date
  • Sticky
  • Tack Board
  • Thank You
  • Trophy
  • Vacation
  • We've Moved

If you are using any of the above templates (and wish to continue doing so), please read the instructions below to preserve your access to these templates.

How can I preserve Apple Mail stationery?

The best and easiest thing to do is to upgrade to at least Direct Mail 5.3 before you upgrade to macOS 10.14.

If you upgrade to Direct Mail 5.3, it will automatically create a backup copy of Apple Mail stationery that will survive the upgrade to macOS 10.14 and which will be available to you in Direct Mail. After you upgrade to Direct Mail 5.3, you can proceed to upgrade your Mac to macOS 10.14.

Another option is to convert to templates any messages that you are currently using Apple Mail stationery with. Here's how:

  1. In the Messages tab, select your message
  2. Choose 'Message > Create Template from Message' from the menu bar at the top of your screen

This will turn the currently selected message into a template that will work properly even after upgrading to macOS 10.14. The template will appear in Direct Mail’s template chooser.

In this post (and accompanying video) I will show you an easy way to create reusable email templates in the latest version of Apple Mail. And I have to say, I like this way even better than my old way of using stationery. And, it will work with any version of Apple Mail.

UPDATE: This process also works in macOS Catalina (v10.15) and Big Sur (v11).

I have been using the stationery feature in Apple Mail as a way to create reusable email templates for quite some time now. It’s been a time saver! Unfortunately, Apple removed the stationery feature from the Mail app in macOS Mojave. So, now what? Check out the video tutorial and the instructions below.

Steps to create an email template

  1. Create a new email message. You can populate the To, Cc, Bcc, Subject and Body of the email with whatever you need to be part of your template. Formatting (bold, colors, etc.) all work fine. You can even add pictures and attachments as part of your template.
  2. Save the draft message. Close the draft and you will be prompted to save it.
  3. Create a new email folder called “Templates”. You can call it whatever you want, but this will be the home for all of your template messages.
  4. Move your draft message to the Templates folder. Drag and drop the email draft you saved earlier to the Templates folder you just created.
  5. In the Templates folder, right click on the message you want to use as a template and click “Send again”. The message will open as an editable message, so you can tweak and personalize it before sending it. The original is left in the Templates folder so you can reuse it again and again.

Quick and easy! I have found that this solution is even better than it was before with the stationery feature in older versions of the Mail App.

How to edit email templates

One more thing. What if you want to edit your email templates? It’s a great question, because you can’t edit them in the Templates folder. So here’s what you need to do:

  1. Drag and drop your template from the Templates folder to the Drafts folder.
  2. Open the message from the Drafts folder to edit it.
  3. Save your changes and then drag the message back to the Templates folder.

You might be wondering, why not just leave all of my reusable email templates in the Drafts folder. Great question. Unfortunately, the “Send again” option doesn’t exist in the Drafts folder. As soon as you send a draft email it’s gone. Not very reusable. Plus, I think it’s cleaner to keep templates separate in their own special folder.

If you haven’t upgrade to macOS Mojave yet and want to salvage the stationery feature…

Check out this stack exchange tip. It explains what you need to do BEFORE upgrading to Mojave in order to save the stationery feature. Personally, I think the new solution above is superior and you shouldn’t be afraid to say good-bye to stationery. But, to each their own.
