Emails
Your emails are the core messages you send to your contacts. Whether you're announcing a product launch, sharing a monthly newsletter, or following up after a purchase, every successful message starts with a solid design. You build and refine your emails once under Email > Emails. Later, when you're ready to reach your audience, you'll select your finished design and Mind plans the send, and you approve what goes out.
The Emails Screen
The Emails screen (located under Email > Emails) is your central hub for creating, managing, and editing all your emails. Whether you're drafting a monthly newsletter or a product launch announcement, you can see every message at a glance, build new ones, and preview exactly what your recipients will see in their inbox.

The Email Editor
If you've ever built a web page, you know that modern browsers can handle almost anything. Email clients, however, are notoriously picky. To ensure your messages look perfect in every inbox, our email editor uses a curated set of email-safe blocks rather than the full range of website components. Behind the scenes, your layout is compiled into MJML—a specialized markup language for responsive emails—before being converted into battle-tested HTML that renders flawlessly across all major email clients.

Tips for Effective Email Design
FAQ
Older desktop clients, like Outlook, use restrictive rendering engines that often strip out modern CSS. This is exactly why our email editor uses a curated set of email-safe blocks. Behind the scenes, your content is compiled into MJML—a specialized markup language designed to ensure your emails look great and function reliably across all inboxes, even the stubborn ones.
The easiest way to catch layout issues is by using the device preview in your editor toolbar before sending. If a layout breaks on mobile, check your image settings. Ensure your images aren't forced to fixed widths that are wider than a standard mobile screen, which can stretch the layout and break the responsive design.
First, check your spam or junk folder—sometimes test emails get filtered out by overzealous inbox rules. Next, verify that your sender email address is correctly configured in your email settings. If everything looks right, just give it a few minutes; delivery times can occasionally vary depending on your email provider.
