Branded email

Branded email is a form of email. While plain email from an organization can contain the organization's name and contact information, branded email can also contain the organization's logo and other images, and have distinctive colors, fonts and other stylistic elements; this makes branded email much more visually similar to a document written on a paper letterhead.
