I wonder if it's occurred to anyone that there are reasons Keymail can't handle HTML at this time? There are obviously reasons, since HW would probably have already implemented the feature if it was possible without completely redoing the entire Email system on the BN. I suspect it has to do with the fact that Keyweb and Keymail are two totally different programs. Keymail actually uses Keyword to display Email, so it's no surprise that it can't handle HTML. You would get the same result by opening an HTML file in regular Keyword as you do when reading an HTML Email in Keymail, lots of code with the text buried within. Keyweb, on the other hand, is designed strictly to handle HTML, and if you save an HTML Email as an HTML file and open that file in Keyweb, the results can be quite good.
I'm almost afraid to send this, as there seems to be a lot of emotion tied up in this thread, but I hope to shed a little light on a possible reason why things are the way they are. Keymail just isn't as robust as Email clients that are available on a PC, and it does require a few work-arounds. Still, I continue to be impressed at just how much I can push the envelope with a program that probably wasn't designed to handle several hundred daily Emails. Just some thoughts from a very heavy Keymail user. And I sincerely hope this doesn't provoke anyone's anger, that was never my intention. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Rob Gentell Sent: Wednesday, March 08, 2006 12:03 AM To: 'Braillenote List' Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Suggestion of improvement for next upgrade Bingo! It's highly unlikely that mainstream viruses could penetrate a closed architecture such as Keysoft, so I implore those out there to stop making excuses on behalf of HumanWare and let them get on with real work like support for html email. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of robert Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2006 9:54 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Suggestion of improvement for next upgrade Hello, If viruses have not been written for windows ce, then how would this occur? The keymail program would be expanded to allow for html emails, but nothing is being done to ce, and if the web browser already has the capability, and there have not been any viruses, then how would this change things? It seems to me, that viruses would not be possible, so if you have more information on this, let me know, so I can understand better.
