An associate and myself have used the script provided by Mr. Heyes to successfully send an html formatted email message. However; when a recipient only has the ability to read the text version, we have received complaints that the message is being displayed as a single string with no line breaks. If I send the text only version to myself using the mail function, I receive a properly formatted message. We have not received anymore info from the complainers as to which email client they were using. Also if I attempt to view a message sent using Mr. Heyes's script by typing mail at my Unix terminal, I get gibberish. I am a newbie to the protocol and encoding standards of email, so I have no idea where this problem could be originating. So any advice that anyone is willing to share will be greatly appreciated. Thanx in advance. Tre' Richard Heyes wrote: > > This appears to be exactly what I need.
