Per user — separate the heading a touch more from the first followed entry
(bottom margin 18px → 28px).

It was 11px uppercase — smaller than the 14px links, backwards for a heading.
Now 20px bold ink, clearly a section header above its items.

Per Codex — give follows an immediate payoff without making the email feel
algorithmic. The editorial brief stays the star: subject + brief count unchanged.
* followed_digest_items(conn, user_id, exclude_ids, limit=3): recent items from
the user's followed sources/tags, same accepted/non-dup/content-visible gate,
excludes anything in the brief, capped to one per source so a single follow
can't dominate. Empty → section omitted (no empty state in email).
* build_digest gains an optional `followed` list → a small "From what you follow"
section AFTER the brief, only when there are items. Item rendering factored into
shared _item_html / _item_text_lines helpers.
* send_due_digests computes the followed items per user (excluding the brief).

Per Codex — cleanest, most brand-consistent option. Rasterized logo.svg to a
small transparent logo-email.png (360px wide, shown at 180px for retina), served
at /logo-email.png. alt="Upbeat Bytes" keeps the brand if a client blocks
images. SVG isn't email-safe; a hosted PNG is the standard approach.

Per user — make the text masthead read as the brand: lowercase 'upbeat bytes'
with a space but tight letter-spacing (-0.045em, not standard), in the logo's
two colours (azure #0083ad + navy #002772). Closest email-safe echo of the logo
short of a hosted PNG.

Per user: lowercase masthead to echo the logo's character (kept as text, not an
image — email clients strip SVG and block remote images, so text always renders
and degrades gracefully). More breathing room before the 'Good morning' intro,
and a horizontal divider after it to match the item separators. (Real logo PNG
remains an option if wanted.)

Per user feedback: rename from 'Today's good news' (which implied the site was
done for the day) to a publication-style 'Upbeat Bytes — Daily Highlights'
masthead with a warm morning intro and a sign-off that links back to the site
('more good news is always waiting'). Adds 'why it's here' to the plain-text
part too. No images by design (lightweight, mail-client-safe).

* On-site end-cap now says "You're caught up for now." — honest, since Highlights
refreshes through the day (the email keeps the daily "see you tomorrow").
* Anonymous "Get tomorrow's brief by email" now honors the one-tap promise:
sets a pending flag, opens sign-in, and auto-enables once auth resolves.
* Email compliance (RFC 2369/8058): send_email takes optional headers; the digest
sets List-Unsubscribe + List-Unsubscribe-Post=One-Click, and a POST
/api/digest/unsubscribe handles native one-click (GET still serves the page).
