Firefox Accounts Mailer

Library to send out verification emails in the fxa-auth-server which renders emails from a template (and handles localization).

The emails are written to postfix which tends sends them off to SES.

The auth-mailer also includes a restify API to send emails, but the auth server is using it as a library at the moment.

Prerequisites

• node 0.10.x
• npm
• postfix

Changing Templates

If you are changing or adding templates then you need to update .html and .txt templates. Use the /partials directory to make changes to the HTML templates, then run grunt templates to regenerate the template. This saves the HTML template into /templates. Then make changes to the .txt template in the /templates directory.

L10N

After updating a string in one of the templates in ./templates you'll need to extract the strings using this script:

extract_strings.sh [--mailer-repo ./fxa-auth-mailer] [--content-repo ./fxa-content-server] [--l10n-repo ./fxa-content-server-l10n] train_number
