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.
An organization with at most 5 users that is behind on payments isn't
worth spending time on investigating the situation.
For larger organizations, we likely want somewhat different logic that
at least does not void invoices.
Checked the email looked OK in `/emails` for both creating realm and
registering within an existing one.
Not sure zerver/tests/test_i18n.py test has been suppressed correctly.
Fixes#17786.
This reverses the policy that was set, but incompletely enforced, by
commit 951514dd7d. The self-closing tag
syntax is clearer, more consistent, simpler to parse, compatible with
XML, preferred by Prettier, and (most importantly now) required by
FormatJS.

The email subject used to be translated to the language of
the user who requested the sponsorship. This was a bug since
the recipient of the emails are Zulip's support staff and
not the user who requested the sponsorship.
We're migrating to using the cleaner zulip.com domain, which involves
changing all of our links from ReadTheDocs and other places to point
to the cleaner URL.
Popular email clients like Gmail will automatically linkify link-like
content present in an HTML email they receive, even if it doesn't have
links in it. This made it possible to include what in Gmail will be a
user-controlled link in invitation emails that Zulip sends, which a
spammer/phisher could try to take advantage of to send really bad spam
(the limitation of having the rest of the invitation email HTML there
makes it hard to do something compelling here).
We close this opportunity by structuring our emails to always show the
user's name inside an existing link, so that Gmail won't do new
linkification, and add a test to help ensure we don't remove this
structure in a future design change.

This fixes missing translation tags in our missed-message emails,
which is surely the most user-facing part of the production that
wasn't internationalized.
Fixes: #14398
We now prevent these variations:
* <hr/>
* <hr />
* <br/>
* <br />
We could enforce similar consistency for other void
tags, if we wished, but these two are particularly
prevalent.
Previously, the send_custom_email code path leaked files in paths that
were not `.gitignored`, under templates/zerver/emails.
This became problematic when we added automated tests for this code
path, as it meant we leaked these files every time `test-backend` ran.
Fix this by ensuring all the files we generate are in this special
subdirectory.
The alt text of the leading images were displayed as preview
content in inbox by email clients like gmail. Since the leading
images were used mostly for decoration this made the preview
content gibberish. It's fine to set the alt attributes to empty
from accessibility point of view since the old alt attributes
did't added any meaningful information.
Hopefully this does a better job of spurring people to action, and also
suggests a self-service fix if they don't (i.e. contacting the person that
invited them).
Making sender name go in-line with message body only if
the html starts with <p> tag since it won't look good
if the message starts with a code snippet, ul, etc.
If message starts with p tag we can safely assume that
it can go in-line with sender name.
This is a dramatic redesign of the look and feel of our missed-message
emails, designed to decrease the feeling of clutter and just provide
the content users care about in a clear, visible fashion.
This cleans up the reply_warning feature in favor of a more coherent
explanation of whether or not one can reply.
(Also, critically, it now advertises the ability to enable
missed-message email replies with some administrative configuration
work.)
The antialiasing decisions we made for the webapp should be constant
over the entire page, not limited to particular subsections or themes.
If we wanted antialiasing, we should do it on the entire page, not
individual random widgets. But it's not clear we actually want to do
it on the entire page. The `-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale`
setting now happens by default in OSX Mojave (40% world market share
right now and growing), so there's no reason to override it. And
without retina displays, generally, subpixel rendering provides better
results than antialiasing (which overrides subpixel rendering).
Thanks to Anders Kaseorg for advice on this issue.
Refactoring in 4e1c058 was not correct since recipient_block
and message_content checked for if not condition while
recipient_header checked for if.
The naming of classes in 6077a33 was also not correct
semantically.
It looked like I got some hex values wrong during the
hsl to hex conversions. I used the built in vscode color
converter for this so not really sure how this happened.
The colors are now equalent to the original hex colors
before the conversion to hsl was made in

As part of this change, we port into the .messages class the work in
4e8e7348da to change overflow-y to auto,
not scroll (skipping that would result in a regression).
Note that a pretty common use case for this is a realm admin sending this to
everyone after an import from HipChat or Slack. So this adds the realm_name
to the title (so that there is something they might recognize) and kept the
wording generic enough to accommodate the user not having clicked anything
to get this email.
Also strengthens the tests a bit to better test the complicated template
logic.
