html mail
I was wondering how the sending/viewing of html mail works?

I can't seem to format the html-mail; I thought a special tab would appear. (just as Hotmail.com TM)

Hi,

You need IE 5.5 to be able to send HTML mail using the WYSIWYG editor. Any browser can view html mail though.

Cheers,

Alex

Sorry for butting into this thread but whilst you are on the topic of the WYSIWYG editor, when I go to edit some of the templates the colors show up really strangely in the editor. ie the bgcolor is bright blue and text is green etc...I am using IE5.5, do you know what the reason for this is?

Yes, it's because we use <font color="<%option_color%>"> in the template. Unfortunately this makes the WYSIWYG template editor not that usable. =)
