Hi!
I'm looking for a technical primer regarding programming correct HTML
newsletters. E.g. I remember reading about inline jpegs to avoid
attachment problems and the like :-)
Thanks for your hints / links and ideas.

It sounds like you want to e-mail html-formatted newsletters to
people, complete with graphics.
My suggestion is, don't. Instead, send your subscribers a short
text paragraph together with a link to the newsletter, which would
be somewhere on your web server. That way, subscribers who don't
like to use the same program for e-mail and web browsing are happy,
and you reduce the risk that your newsletters will get flagged as
spam by content filters.
Personally, I hate getting html newsletters, and I have my
e-mail client set to not display images at all (linked,
attached, or inline).

Compose the newsletter as a Web page and upload it to a Web server.
Then send a brief E-mail message to your subscribers with the link to
the Web page. This way, you can keep all prior issues available. Then,
when you have a new article that updates something from a prior issue,
you can put a link in the new article to the prior article.
As for sending HTML-formatted E-mail, see my

HTML-only (evil, and a common mark of phishing spam) isn't the same
thing as properly-coded multipart HTML + plaintext.
I'll happily read a HTML + plaintext email, even if I only ever read
the plaintext. It's HTML-only that goes straight into the killfile. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Because I've had recipients of our newsletter tell us they can't (or
won't) receive HTML e-mail, I found out how to make an e-mail that
sends both HTML and a plaintext version in a multipart message.
Problem is, while the HTML version shows up fine in HTML enabled
clients like Outlook, in plaintext clients it either shows nothing in
the body or just an attachment link to the message source code.
I've tried different encodings and bits...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
