How to send an html message with inline images and text for non html mail clients?


I want to send emails that show up as html in the mail client including
images plus an alternative text for non html capable mail clients. I know
that the MailMessage class creates its own text part from the html but I
don't want do that because its probably won't look right so I want to add
my own text version.

I tried to send a message where the body is a pure html string but Outlook
didn't render it but showed the html tags. I did use MailFormat.Html but I
guess some encoding wasn't done properly.

Anyone knows how to send a self contained messages that include the text,
html and images? Lumping these as mhtml?

http://bytes.com/images/howtos/applemail_sig_icon.jpg At first glance, it may not appear that Apple Mail (otherwise known as Mail.app) supports the use of HTML signature emails. However, with a little terminal and Safari magic, you will be sending HTML signatures. 1. Prepare your HTML signature. Open TextEdit or your favorite HTML editor and create your signature just how you want it to look. Remember to keep it simple as most mail...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
