[PHP] how to send an MSWORD email?

[See Kok Boon]

Hi experts,

 

I have an email database which I want to send out newsletter to. I want to
send emails that have graphics, for example the pub logo. I know that there
are 2 ways to do so (maybe there are more, pls enlighten me):

 

1.      use html email with <img src="http://www.mydomain.com/logo.gif";>

 

2.      use MSWORD to insert the logo into the email. MSWORD will then send
the logo.gif as an attachment and will ALSO use <img> tags.

 

Due to web space concerns, I cannot point the img source to the http
location of the logo.gif, thus I have to use attachments. However, I only
know how to include the logo.gif using MSWORD emails (currently using
outlook xp), this in turn gives me another problem: how do I send the email
created in MSWORD to the emails I have in the database using PHP?

 

Please teach me one of the following methods:

1.      create an email with the same logic as MSWORD does, so that I can
use a web interface to create the email then send the logo.gif as an
attachment.

 

2.      send the code to send MSWORD emails not as a document attachment to
ANOTHER email, but an email itself.

 

3.      some other better methods.

 

 

I really need to know this urgently, Thanks in advance.
