I want to be able to send a testmail to myself before sending to all the subscribers. How can I accomplish that?

There is no option for testing email. I added this feature for the wishlist.

I implemented this feature. You can send a test email on the update page of news.

Please send me the code of the extended plugin and I will check it.

How can I add in the email template for the subscribers? I tested out by subscribing. But I didn't get the email of confirmation of subscription.

You can change the email template the following page:

Settings > Mail > Mail Templates > indikator.news::mail.email_en

Thank you! I have done with my email template. How could I change the settings for the mail configurations If I am using my gmail as the email to send out template to subscribers? How should I configure the settings? mail method, stmp address, stmp port, stmp emcroption protocol, username and password?
