I ahve three different email and I can never tell how it's going to come out on the other end. Is there a SURE fire way to make sure they see the HTML effects or not? Otr maybe there's some big rule I don't know about,...I AM just barely stumbling my way through this,.. :?

Some servers do not have html ability for outbound/outgoing emails

Some servers DO have this feature, but you have to pre-set it

Other servers/mail programs have a program that you do it (and
they all vary)

Some servers are ... some servers!!!!! They're supposed to offer
much but the "catch" is - they want you to pay more for it ...

Click around - check your server's FAQ.

I know Outlook Express offers such - but I avoid using it with
much passion if necessary!



ONE way to check it out is copying and pasting html if your email
system enables such - and email it to yourself to see how it appears.

I was afraid of that,...yikes it seems complicated,..so are you saying that it ONLY matters how it's send and not how it's received?

I just did this experiment, I get confused and it becomes muddy in the mind,...please help me analyze the results.

I think it means, I should send everything our through Comcast, but receive stuff through one of the other two?

Hotmail to Hotmail - Comes thru colored, clickable, but look typewritten all the same size
Hotmail to Yahoo - colored, clickable, but look typewritten, all the same size
Hotmail to Comcast - Not Colored, but clickable, looks like plain arial font, all the same size

Yahoo to Yahoo - colored, clickable, but look typewritten, all the same size
Yahoo to Hotmail - colored, clickable, but look typewritten, all the same size
Yahoo to Comcast - Not Colored, but clickable, looks like plain arial font, all the same size

Comcast to Comcast - colored, clickable, looks great
Comcast to Yahoo - colored, clickable, looks great
Comcast to Hotmail - colored, clickable, looks great

If I'm understanding this right, too, the receiver also has the option to receive only in text and block html.
