I wrote some code to send email as both HTML & Text, and I am having having trouble testing it. On Thunderbird and Outlook, there is an option to view as plain-text, however I have a feeling that they are being smart and doing something to the plain text (because it looks slightly different in thunderbird than in outlook). What's the c...
I'm using System.Net.Mail to send an email message and want to make sure it appears properly from anything from a text-only cellphone to a rich client on Mac, Suse Linux/Evolution, or Windows. I gather there are a few points to consider when sending a message with such a broad reach. Here is my list so far: Plain text header: For tex...
I'm working on an HTML email and have been running to a problem on the mail client on the iPad only.

I'm using the PHP native mail() function to send HTML emails and have a formatting problem in the users most common email client - Outlook 2007 (in addition to some other email clients) - all the html tags are exposed so it looks like gibberish to a non-web-developer. I'm sending HTML email the same way that the PHP manual demos it. Exa...

I added plain text version to system generated emails, because email without text version is considered as spam. Here is my code: MailMessage mm = new MailMessage( new MailAddress(from, msg.FromName), new MailAddress(msg.ToEmail, msg.ToName)); mm.Subject = msg.Subject; mm.Body = msg.Body; mm.IsBodyHtml = 1; mm.Priority = MailPriority.N...
Hi Everyone, I have a simple PHP script that sends a message to a specified email address with content from a HTML form using the mail() function (which I am aware is prone to spam). I was wondering if it's possible to obtain additional information about the user's settings and input them in the sent mail. Additional information could...
Hi, I've had a look in the Thunderbird plugins for an addon which will work as an Email Blast application to send out bulk mailers but found none. I was wondering if anyone knows of one or if none exist, I'm planting a seed! :) Cheers, James ...

We've created an HTML template that is rendering correctly on all email clients except for one issue with Outlook 2007. In the middle of the Email, there is a 600px tall ad. In Outlook that ad has around 350px of undesired space above it. As far as we can tell, Outlook is doing some kind of pagination to avoid breaking the image in two (...
When sending HTML e-mail, I understand that it's a best practice to send a plain text version as well. But my question is: Must you send a plain text version as well? What are the repercussions? ...
When sending long emails, Gmail will clip the end of the email. If the email is HTML, this can break the design bady. (See rant here) There is supposedly a character limit that's approximately 100k characters. Is this correct? ...
My boss's clients are complaining that when some HTML newsletters are forwarded, their table-based layout breaks. I have determined that this is most likely caused by using the following option in Outlook: Tools > Options > Mail Format > Use Microsoft Office Word 2003 to edit e-mail messages My boss refuses to change this option and is...
I have a client who is requesting an HTML-formatted email to promote an event. Her reasoning is fair enough: She wants a striking layout, attractive graphics, and she doesn't want her recipients to have to click on anything in order to see all of the information. I've never sent an HTML-formatted email because it is sort of demonized, a...
Hello, I am experiencing a weird behavior with Apple Mail. If i define an Anchor and jump to it inside an HTML Mail: <a href="#jump1">Text</a> <a name="jump1">Jump1</a> Then Apple Mail will only jump to this location when you issue a double-click, rather than a single click. You can even have several seconds difference between the f...
