Issue Summary
I think there's a way I can allow through-the-web editing of template files.
-
The
htmlmail_install()function would need to create afiles/htmlmail_templatesfolder for storing template files. -
The
htmlmail_theme()function would need to scan the newly-created folder, in addition to the theme folder and the module folder, for template files. -
A templates tab needs to be added to the module settings page.
-
The
htmlmail_update_7000()function would need to create a template file for each existing 1.x template variable. -
All of the above would need to be backported to the 6.x-2.x branch

Cool. That's one. Anybody else?

Yeah that would be sweet. I don't intend on going to D7 soon so if it worked in D6 as well . . .

See #5 in OP

Any progress on this ...............! I hope this feature will bring back the simplicity offered by this modules in earlier versions and also improve the usage (I see a plateau in overall statistics). When I first saw the module in 6x I jumped and installed because of the simple interface. Now despite 9 moths after drupal 7 release I am still thinking whether to install this or not ('cause I am using the default 'bartik' theme, I need to copy the template file each time I upgrade drupal- which is happening very frequently).

Just an idea at the moment. I've been rather immersed in another project and haven't had as much time to spend on HTML Mail lately, but will have to get back to it soon.
Part of the reason I posted this issue was to gauge the interest by counting responses.
