What you can do is put some plain text at the top and just surround it
with Comment delimiters: <!--   -->

And if they have HTML, they'll never see it. If they have plain text,
they'll see the message first, then the jumble of HTML.

> Hi all,

> To date, using CDONTS has been fine.  One thing I don't like however,

> is that once the email is sent you do not know if there was a failure on
> delivery.  Does anyone know of a link that discusses how to poll the
> SMTP server to see if any mail had a delivery failure?
