Andy, Thank you for working this out! Now, this is an HTML email message, right? Not a multipart email. So, folks who only have a text-only reader, such as a palm or god forbid, claris emailer would not be able to read it natively in those applications, right? what is really needed is a way to send a multipart email. Are you familiar with multipart emails? See, I only know about this from what other people have told me, as I have NEVER had an email client that could send multipart. But, what they tell me is that it sends both text and html and the email client chooses which ever one it can read. Seems very civil to me. :)
