Email newsletter subscriptions

Hi, @manton! I don’t know where to put feature requests, so please move this if there’s a better place for it.

My number one feature request with newsletters is to set a permanent “wrapping” around the posts – an intro paragraph at the top, at the least, and optimally a “thanks for reading, here’s how to contact me” at the end.

I know that I can do this manually, and I have done so in the past, but I cannot reliably get to a computer in the 3-hour morning window between the preview and the sending of the message.

The result is that some of my newsletters look and feel better than others, and that’s an inconsistent experience for readers.

Another option would be to allow us to schedule the time of day, but I understand that would add another level of complexity for you. It seems easiest to allow us to edit and save a persistent block of introductory text on the newsletter settings page.

Thanks for considering.
