Apparently, Apple Mail interpreted the <body> text in the comment here
as the start of the body in the email in its special parser for
displaying a preview of emails in the inbox view, resulting in every
Zulip email being displayed as "tag out of the email, the ..." instead
of our configured preheader.
This commit places the email CSS into the `style` tag located in the
`head` section. This resolves the issue of being unable to apply
certain CSS styles that cannot be inlined, such as media queries and
pseudo-classes.
In #23380 we want to change all ocurrences of `uri` to `url`. This
commit changes the ocurrences of `uri` appeared in files related to
email, including templates (`.html`, `.txt`) and backend (`.py`)
codes.
In `email.md`, `base_images_uri` is changed to `images_base_url` -
the words `base` and `images` are swapped and plural form is added
for `image`. This is becasue the former is not found anywhere in
the codebase while the later appears a lot. To reduce confusion,
this doccumentation changed accordingly.
The migration to css-inline "fixed" the fact that styles from this
file previously were never applied to the internals of missed-message
emails.
Rewrite much of the CSS to more correctly scope to apply to the
appropriate elements, and document with comments the purpose of most
blocks.

Previously, the email had a line that says "Click the button below". This
sounds weird as the plain text emails don't have buttons and only had links.
We should change "Click the button below" to "Click the link below" which
makes more sense.
After merging #24423, it was found that there were still an email yet to be updated with the new lines introduced in that PR. This commit updates both the email and plain-text versions.
This is a continuation of #24260 where we have redrafted the "contact us"
line in various emails, but the plain-text versions of those emails remains
untouched. We want to also update those versions and ensure that they match
with our emails.
Fixes: #25198.
Several onboarding emails sent to new users/organizations used the
same "contact us" language. Adds new macros for the "contact us"
line for Zulip Cloud and self-hosted realms to eliminate repetition.
The suitable macro for Zulip Cloud vs self-hosted organizations is
decided conditionally, by checking corporate_enabled.
Fixes#24260.
This issue was introduced after we changed the library we use for
inlining CSS into email HTML. For some reason, the styles in
email.css were not applied earlier but were applied after we
migrated to css-inline. With this commit, we have fixed the
regression in background-color of email body.
Fixes#25083.

Fixes part of #25083
Adds a new welcome email, `onboarding_zulip_guide`, to be sent four
days after a new user registers with a Zulip organization if the
organization has specified a particular organization type that has
a guide in the corporate `/for/.../` pages. If there is no guide,
then no email is scheduled or sent.
The current `for/communities/` page is not very useful for users
who are not organization administrators, so these onboarding guide
emails are further restricted for those organization types to
only go to new users who are invited/registered as admins for the
organzation.
Adds two database queries for new user registrations: one to get
the organization's type and one to create the scheduled email.
Adds two email logs because the email is sent both to a new user
who registers with an existing organization and to the organization
owner when they register a new organization.

Previously, we had an architecture where CSS inlining for emails was
done at provision time in inline_email_css.py. This was necessary
because the library we were using for this, Premailer, was extremely
slow, and doing the inlining for every outgoing email would have been
prohibitively expensive.
Now that we've migrated to a more modern library that inlines the
small amount of CSS we have into emails nearly instantly, we are able
to remove the complex architecture built to work around Premailer
being slow and just do the CSS inlining as the final step in sending
each individual email.
This has several significant benefits:
* Removes a fiddly provisioning step that made the edit/refresh cycle
for modifying email templates confusing; there's no longer a CSS
inlining step that, if you forget to do it, results in your testing a
stale variant of the email templates.
* Fixes internationalization problems related to translators working
with pre-CSS-inlined emails, and then Django trying to apply the
translators to the post-CSS-inlined version.
* Makes the send_custom_email pipeline simpler and easier to improve.

Currently, there is a checkbox setting for whether to
"Include realm name in subject of message notification emails".
This commit replaces the checkbox setting with a dropdown
having values: Automatic [default], Always, Never.
The Automatic option includes the realm name if, and only if,
there are multiple Zulip realms associated with the user's email.
Tests are added and(or) modified.
Fixes: #19905.
- Clean up the language.
- Add a prominent "Go to organization" button.
- Link to guides for new users and admins.
- Fix duplication bug in text email version.

Some email clients (notably, Gmail Web) support automatically threading
emails together if recipients and subjects match[1]. Manual testing
indicated that prefixing a subject with "[bracketed content]" does not
break this threading behavior, but the added checkmark in a resolved
topic's title does. Before sending an email notification, determine
whether the topic is resolved, and pass this information to the Jinja
template to properly format a threadable email subject.
Fixes: #22538

Previously, stream names and topics (without consideration for their
resolution status) were concatenated in Python-land and passed through
to the template. To more cleanly separate concerns, and to prepare for
accounting for topic resolution status being a third, independent,
component of a subject line, instead pass stream and topic strings
independently to the Jinja template, which can format them as it sees
fit.
Add #stream_name to wildcard mention because it is important
information for interpreting the wildcard mention (larger streams may
mean something very different to you than small ones).
Fixes#22885.
Add {{ realm_name }} to the "Reply to this email directly ..." line.
This ensures the realm name is always present in the email
notification footer area, in a consistent location.
We recently changed /developer-community to /development-community.
Now that this change is in production, we can also migrate the
external links in our ReadTheDocs documentation.
Generally when we send confirmation emails to addresses the user has
not already proven that they control, we want to avoid including in
the email any user-controlled data. Doing so makes it hard for
malicious actors to use the feature to send spam, since they won't
have a way to include the URL for their malicious website in our
emails.
A recent commit removed the "Thanks for you request!" at the start
of the find accounts email. As Alya Abbott pointed out, this line
actually helps us point out to the user that they are the ones who
requested the email in the first place, lowering the chances that
they'll misinterpret it as spam.
This is a follow-up to issue #19659.
For our marketing emails, we want a width that's more appropriate for
newsletter context, vs. the narrow emails we use for transactional
content.
I haven't figured out a cleaner way to do this than duplicating most
of email_base_default.source.html. But it's not a big deal to
duplicate, since we've been changing that base template only about
once a year.
