Re: [twsocket] SMTP demo and RichText

2006-05-16 Thread Jeff Cook
Thank you Francois and Arno

I'll take your advice and use HTML - for the reasons Francois gave about
many email client not supoorting it - but also because I've already
solved the problems of converting RTF to HTML for our bulk emails.  One
downside of doing so is that pretty rich text letters keyed by the
user don't always convert into very nice looking HTML (certainly not
WYSIWYG) - and I haven't yet addressed the problems of embedded images
in the RTF getting converted to HTML.

Cheers

Jeff

P.S. And I think I'd better upgrade ICS to the latest version to see
your MailHTML sample
