# 46. Email Header & Footer Templates

An email header and footer template is the wrapper your emails go out in — your logo, your colours, your contact details at the bottom. The message itself comes from an Email Content Template, and the two are combined when the email is sent, so changing the wrapper restyles every email at once. The list shows each design's Name and Status.
