django-templated-mail
Send emails using Django template system.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No. The package is abandoned (last release February 2018, last commit August 2021) and will not receive updates for Django or Python versions released after that time. Modern Django projects should use built-in template rendering or maintained alternatives. If you are on an old Django version stuck at 1.11 or 2.0, it may work, but there is no path forward.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Django to be installed and configured; email backend must be set up in Django settings.
- Installation is straightforward with no runtime dependencies.
- However, the package is abandoned—last release was 2018-02-01 and last commit 2021-08-19—so it will not receive bug fixes or security updates for newly discovered issues.

What it is and what it does
django-templated-mail is a thin wrapper around Django's EmailMultiAlternatives that lets you store email content in template files rather than hardcoding it in Python. Instead of building email bodies as strings, you reference a template by name and pass a context dictionary, and the package renders it using Django's template engine before sending.
It's designed for Django projects where email templates need to be managed separately from code—useful for marketing emails, notifications, or any scenario where non-developers might need to edit email content. The package has no runtime dependencies beyond Django itself, making it lightweight to add to existing projects.
Use it for
- Store transactional email templates (password resets, confirmations) in your Django template directory instead of Python strings.
- Allow content teams to edit email text without touching code by keeping templates in version control.
- Send multi-part emails (HTML and plain text) by defining both in a single template file.
- Render emails with Django context variables (user names, URLs, dates) pulled from your application state.
