I know how most folks around here feel about HTML email (evil), but it should be noted
that images can be used to track emails. You
can either look in your server logs for hits to the image, or serve up the image using
CF or PHP, which would let you do things like
add records to the database, etc..
options, options...
There are a lot of options and none of them are fool-proof, but maybe by using several
techniques in conjuction with each other you
can cover most of the holes.
