What I don't get is why RitLabs hasn't implemented things like Outlook and (now) Gmail. By default, external images aren't displayed. But all one needs to do is click on an option in that individual email and all the images are then displayed. TB's poor handling of external images is one reason that I have moved all of my HTML newsletters subscriptions over to my Gmail address. jon -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
