Template
This section will describe the template of the emails as it evolves over time.
2018-09
In 2018-09, we switched to phplist. Because phplist doesn't (without installing outdated plugins, that is) OOTB support content from multiple fields, using the 2-column layout would be non-trivial, at best increasing the complexity for the person responsible for sending email campaigns. For this reason, we modified the existing template to be a single column.
The existing template used html tables for structuring the layout, which is horrible. But, it works.
pre-2018
In 2018, OSEmail was revisited as a self-hosted solution using phplist. Prior to this, we had used Campaign Monitor for the template sent with Mailchimp.
