How do I create an HTML email message?
Outlook 2003, on an XP machine, in Internet mode.
When I look:ed at the source of an HTML email that was sent to me, it
started:
html
head
and ended
/div
/html
I have a simple html file that I use to post announcements on Craigslist,
and I'd like to use it in the body of an email and have it go out as an HTML
file. I sent it to myself as a test, and the message had the text
htm
head
This is the head
/head
/html
and when I view the source of that test mesage, this is the source:
!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"
HTMLHEAD
META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"
META content="MSHTML 6.00.2900.3354" name=GENERATOR/HEAD
BODY
DIVFONT size=2
P<html>/P
P<head>/P
PThis is the head/P
P</head></html>/P/FONT/DIV/BODY/HTML
No. I just want the message to say
This is the head.
So, how do I get send a message so that it gets transmitted as HTML, not
text?
I've tried various combinations of default message formats in the Options
dialog box, but none of them seem to matter. Is it somewhere else?
