I get tons of HTML emails every day (many look fantastic, ie the ones from reputable companies, not spammers) so I'm not sure why you might think it never looks right? Given today's slew of html enabled mail readers and ajax style online email apps, I can't see any reason why html formatted emails shouldn't look 100% as they do on websites when all the image blocking/html formatting options are turned on for trusted senders. >It is probably a "remote image".

This is used for an internal company email so nobody cares about the linked html, although I would be happy to embed my images, but last time I looked I recall not finding any easy tutorials on how to do this, perhaps it's time to look again. -Steve _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
