+
+Certain actions on the website trigger events that are handed to a RabbitMQ queueing server. These events and their contents are described here.
+
+### Delivery mode ###
+All events that are sent to the queue MUST be sent with '''delivery_mode = 2''' (persistent messages).
+
+### Exchange name ###
+All events are sent to the exchange '''extensionschoolevents'''
+
+### Mail events ###
+
+Mail is sent through the queue server in order to accomplish asynchronous mail sending (keep the webserver from blocking).
+
+A mail event is identified by the routing key '''mail.sending'''
+
+The body of a mail event consists of a JSON-encoded dictionary of the following form:
+
+{{{#!python
+
+{
+  'from_email': 'sender@my.domain',
+  'recipient_list': [ 'recipient1@gmail.com', 'recipient2@hotmail.com' ],
+  'subject': 'The subject line for this message',
+  'message': 'A multi-line string holding the text version of this message',
+  'html_message': 'A multi-line string holding the html-version of this message',
+}
+}}}
+
+The '''html_message''' field is optional.
