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 -- Jeff Cook Aspect Systems Ltd Phone: +64-9-424 5388 Skype: jeffcooknz www.aspect.co.nz > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Arno Garrels > Sent: Tuesday, 16 May 2006 7:22 p.m. > To: ICS support mailing > Subject: Re: [twsocket] SMTP demo and RichText > > > Francois Piette wrote: > > > btw: RTF message is not a very good idea.
