Sending HTML in an email
We are wanting to send out an email to our database of customers. I'm not sure how to do this. I opened a new email and inserted the HTML code into the body of the email and sent it to myself. All I got was code. The desired outcome should have been the actaul HTML page. How can I do this using outlook?
Thanx!

Hi,
<?php<form enctype=\"text/plain\" action=\"mailto:[email protected]?subject=Subject of Email\">
?>
if the above isn't what you are looking for, play with "method='post'" (or 'get') and it should create an attachment (*.att)
then again, you could use the search button or cgi

not sure the mailto is handled as an action anymore. i think you need php/asp/jsp or something to do that, which means you need to look at the functions in that
POSIX. because a stable os that doesn't have memory leaks and isn't buggy is always good.

Guys, he's talking about SENDING HTML encoded emails. Like from Outlook...
You need to have the images and CSS on a server unless it's embedded CSS (images will still need to be hosted somewhere or sent as attachments).
You should be able to change the email message type to "html" and then edit it from there. Check resources on "stationery" as it works like a template.
