I am sending both text and HTML. The message I get looks like this: boundary="=_ec9ac598a5bbb069fd9a696b254780ef" --=_ec9ac598a5bbb069fd9a696b254780ef Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit TEST MESSAGE WAS HERE --=_ec9ac598a5bbb069fd9a696b254780ef Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="=_74b5fb5ddc651b2065ec31d700d8d15c" --=_74b5fb5ddc651b2065ec31d700d8d15c Content-Type: text/html; charset="ISO-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html> <head> <title>???</title> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-= 1"> </head> <body> etc.... As you can see both are being displayed including some of the header info. Any idea of how this happened. Mark.
