Re: [PHP] Verify email client can read html email?

Thanks!  That's exactly what I wanted and it's easy to add the AltBody.  I
thought it would be harder.  What sort of success have you had with it?  I
don't have access to a pine account.

Here's the example from the site for anyone else who wanted to know
$mail-Body =  This is the message body;
$mail-AltBody = For non html email clients;

AltBody sets the text-only body of the message. This automatically sets the
email to multipart/alternative. This body can be read by mail clients that do
not have HTML email capability such as mutt. Clients that can read HTML will
view the normal Body.

 it is called multipart email and should work across the board.

 should is the operative word in that sentence.
 look at http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net for info on a PHP class to send
 emails.

 I am working with the developer and other programmers to work the bugs out
 of multipart.

 When sending out email is it possible to know if their email client
 program will be able to read a html email?  If it can't read a html
 email then it would show a text email.  I know it's conventional wisdom
 that this isn't possible but has anyone even heard of someone figuring
 this out?

If you have a look at some of the email rfc's, you'll find a format for
sending both so that most clients will be able to show one or the other
