In order to manage and create Email Templates, you will need to go to Admin > Emails > Template Editor. Once there you will be able to view your email templates by selecting the appropriate template in the top right-hand side.

Once the template has been chosen, the template itself will appear on the left, and the live preview of the ticket will be on the right. Any change you make will be shown in the preview panel, so you can always be confident with the emails that are being sent out.

The Language drop-down field along the top of the template will easily update the language in which the template is being viewed.
