# JetPack automatic post notification email customization

 * Hello,
 * When publishing posts, I notice that automated emails go out with a notification
   of the post which was published. I have a few questions about this. The emails
   appear to be from the JetPack plugin.
 * 1. How do I control whether these emails get sent or not?
    2. How do I specify
   which mailing lists they get sent to, if they’re activated? 3. How do I customize
   the content, layout, and theming of the emails? They have a bunch of JetPack 
   green in them which clashes with my theme and site appearance. 4. Is it possible
   to use MailPoet to customize the emails being sent? I already use this to take
   care of the subscription stuff, as far as I know, and to customize the WooCommerce
   emails. 5. MailPoet also seems to have an option to automatically send out a 
   MailPoet formatted email upon blog posts being published, however these ones 
   do not appear to be going out. Only the JetPack ones go out.
 * Any and all help would be appreciated.
 * Thanks,
 * Bryan

 * I forgot to mention, I did read the article at [https://jetpack.com/blog/your-website-looks-great-so-should-your-emails](https://jetpack.com/blog/your-website-looks-great-so-should-your-emails),
   which at one point says “To personalize that message, you can edit the message
   that gets sent out. Just head to: Settings → Reading → Follower settings → “Blog
   follow email text”, and you’re all set.” However, anywhere I see Settings -> 
   Reading options, there is no section for Follower settings, let alone “blog follow
   email text”. Even if there, was, I am looking to customize the whole theme of
   the email, not just one line of text.

 * Hey [@momentumrising](https://wordpress.org/support/users/momentumrising/),

 * These are indeed our Subscription emails, and they’re rather an all-or-nothing
   thing – you can toggle them entirely off for your site, or entirely on. There’s
   not a way to individually select specific posts to send Subscription emails, 
   and select ones that don’t. If you have a post that you don’t want to fire an
   email notification to your subscribers, [you’d toggle off Subscriptions in your Jetpack settings, described here](https://jetpack.com/support/subscriptions/#activate).
   Then you could toggle the feature back on when you wanted to send the subscription
   email notification when you post something else.
 * > How do I specify which mailing lists they get sent to, if they’re activated?
 * As above, it’s an all-or-nothing service, so there’s no way to make custom mailing
   lists with Jetpack Subscriptions. Subscription notifications will get sent to
   everyone who subscribes to your site.

 * Cosmetic customization is not possible with Jetpack Subscriptions. If you require
   more control over your email notifications’ appearance, you would need to use
   a different service. If you want to do this, you can toggle our Subscriptions
   feature off and maintain the other features of Jetpack, though.

 * I think the best option here is for you to only use MailPoet instead of ours,
   since you want a bit more cosmetic control.

 * This setting is in your WP Admin. You’d find it here (insert your domain name
   instead of `MYJETPACKSITE.COM`) `https://MYJETPACKSITE.COM/wp-admin/options-reading.
