Chris your right. I looked further and here is what HotWired does with HTML
email :
In the email header they put:
Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii; name="index.html"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Content-Disposition: inline; filename="index.html"
Content-Base: http://www.hotwired.com
MIME-Version: 1.0
In the body of the message they start with this line:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1">
Then the <html> tag. They are not specifying a <head> tag, but I don't
think it will matter if it was. I think it should be but I'm not sure.
PCWeek does the same thing as HotWired. Infobeat puts the content type in
the email header, then puts the meta tag both before and after the <html>
tag.
Hope this helps.
James

I think you may be mistaken, shouldn't it be in the <HEAD> section?
