Private Label: how can I update the system's default footer?
Many private label partners offer free trials, limited or discounted accounts to their customers and asked for the ability to create a customized email footer that would append to the bottom of each outgoing email message from customers that wanted it. The previous options was either a) access to a generic email footer or b) each user could simply create their own HTML footer.  Now, that ability has been enhanced.

How It Works

Feel free to use merge tags to personalize the footer, In our example, we merge in the CAN-SPAM information, along with a working unsubscribe link.
