Email Templates are configured in Setup / Extensibility / Templates / Email

Overview

Email templates are used to notify account contacts and users when system events such as dunning, billing and invoicing activities occur (e.g. an email sent when payment is overdue). Email templates can be configured with variables to provide dynamic data in email messages (e.g. a contact's name, account id, account balance, etc.).
