What email client are you using? Outlook Express? Or are you talking about Webmail? Have you tried pasting HTML source code?

Also, are you sure the recipient has set features to receive/view HTML code in email?

In GMail, no need for adding HTML code... See *personalweb.about.com/b/a/158349.htm for details of sending HTML email in GMail...

You can use Outlook Express for Gmail accounts. Gmail provides POP3/SMTP facilities. With OE, you can format the mails you want to. Here are some simple steps ;)

1. Make and save the HTML page.
2. In OE, there is a small arrow next to the first button on the toolbar. Click on that arrow.
3. Click on "Select Stationery ..."
4. Select the HTML page that you want to send as mail.

OR

1. Open a page in Internet Explorer
2. Click on File > Send > Page by email

Just for more information, there are hundreds of Stationery available for OE. For an example, have a look at *thundercloud.net/ :)

Well I have a problem with the email client.When I click send mail the mail is sent.But after sometime several meassages from some "postmaster@......." comes saying that there was some error & that the message could not be sent.Is there any other way in gmail itself.I have created my own template which I should be able to edit.

The message says that it was unable to deliver the email to the recipient.The message comes about 10 to 15 times saying this.

There will also be some reason given that why this message could not be delivered. That reason is important. Post that full message here to find out the reason.

There one more method .. just tried it & send it to myself .. worked :D

Copy paste the stuff in MS Word, then delete the the items not required like AD etc. then Save the file as Single HTML Document. Done
File opens in Firefox
Send this file after compressing with zip or rar. :wink:

simple, just attach it as an attachment..... and when u will send it to someone, then .html attachments are automatically opened.(in the inbox showing the content of the html page)..... no need to do anything
