I understand the objections people may have to the sole inclusion of HTML
content in email, however providing misinformation doesn't resolve that.
Section 9.1 of RFC 2557, "MIME Encapsulation of Aggregate Documents"
specifically calls out the means by which one sends HTML documents without
included objects, and this mirrors the examples given by myself and Kevin
Pease (more so Kevin's, as mine fails to include mime-version and encoding).
It is an IETF standard, and in his original email Nilanjan specifically
mentions Outlook, which supports this standard. The example Kevin stated is
not 'malformed' and are valid solutions to Nilanjan's question. The example
that you give merely attaches the HTML document to the email, which can be
done with most any email client and I suspect is not quite what was being
asked.
