You can read more about templates and the syntax here.
Upload message
Upload a pre-created email message by pressing the “Upload message” button in the Newletter composer. The file needs to be a .ZIP with the following content:
/index.html
/images/*
Note
Email template creators like BeeFree will generate exported messages in this format.
All the images references in index.html need to be inside the images/ folder. If images are not in this folder they can not be extracted and included in the email.
Once the message is uploaded the Compsoser dialog will switch to read-only mode.
