OT - sending HTML email

I have a client that wants to send HTML based email.

Building and sending isn't a problem, but he wants to include a plain text
link at the top of the email that will display if the user doesn't not
accept HTML email. Maybe it is the product we are using to send the email,
but there is no way to include non-HTML formatted text
in the email. Is there a way to send non-HTML and HTML in a single email?

Thanks.

Hi all I'm sending email via ASP.NET in HTML mode. Each email has exactly one attachment and I do have full access to the SMTP server. However, if I send the email in HTML format, the framework reports the following exception: "System.Web.HttpException: Could not access 'CDO.Message' object. ---> System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
