I need to send out HTML email to a mailing list for a volunteer
organization. I do this in order to have formatted text of different sizes
and colors. Someday, I might want to add a logo or simple graphic.

I send the email from a Yahoo non-POP account by copying and pasting the
HTML code generated in Word or GoLive into Yahoo's web browser compose
window. 

I notice that the HTML code previews fine in the originating application, in
various web browsers on my machine, and in Yahoo's online HTML preview
function. But when I receive a copy in Entourage X, there are anomalies. In
this case, a dash, apostrophe, and open and close quotes were displayed as
unusual characters.

I don't see that problem when I receive the same email in the Mac OS Mail
app. (Although the size and spacing of the text is very different.) And
other recipients on PCs don't see the glitch.

Is there something about Entourage X's handling of HTML code that's wonky?
Or do I simply need to develop a better understanding of how to create HTML
email so it looks the same in all email clients?

How do I find out how to do that?

I don't mean complex HTML ads like I get from Apple and Adobe. Just a simple
text only, or text plus logo email that's formatted so the ideas pop out for
easy reading. I can't use an email client to send  because the
organization's account is not a POP account.

Thanks,
Doug
