Sending HTML newsletters by email
Does anyone know if theres a way you can send HTML documents by e-mail using the "Emailing Newsletter/Link Owners" feature in Links 2.0? When I tried to paste in a HTML document from MSIE (which works fine when sending html documents using Outlook Express), Links emailer just send the HTML raw code in the body of the email message (athough on the preview/debug mode it disabled the HTML page fine)...what gives?

Assuming its not possible to send HTML document newsletter in Links, is there a way of extracting all the email addresses of links owners, without doing it manually, as adding 2000+ email addresses into Outlook Express could take rather a long time!

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

If you want to use HTML in the e-mails, then you have to setup certain headers. I'm not sure what they are, but I'm sure someone could give you some pointers.

Note: Not everyone can read HTML, such as people who disable it in their AOL accounts, some hotmail accounts etc. So be careful when thinking about doing this Wink

Actually AOL does support html emails and also I already responded to the duplicate thread.

I know they do, but lots of people turn the function off as it can cause problems!
