If you are pasting source thats exactly what will happen.

You can expect this to be the norm if the email has styles attached or linked to it, at the very least. Those styles can often conflict with web mail's styles and make bad things happen. Whoever designs the mailer has to do it using styles that are named so that they will not conflict with any web mail client that is reading them and has its own style sheet. So basically, you can expect this problem to not go away unless he web mail system is redesigned so that the message window is a self-contained entity in a frame or somesuch, with no styles applied to that template. For your testing purposes, I'm not aware of any simple way to put what would ordinarily be html head info (i.e. styles) into a client like Outlook. My clients (large associations... no spammers) do it with a specialized mailer tool that I built. I can tell you how to do it in ColdFusion fairly easily. -- --Matt Robertson-- MSB Designs, Inc.
