Re: OT: HTML mail and multi-part mime [ not Re: list syntax ]



Agree - I just tossed them without doing any testing.

And - apologies for sending a blank message - it's not malformed, it's idiocy.

There's an increasing number of HTML posts on this list. It's not

important aspect of the message that you must send HTML formatted mail
be aware that you'll lose some of your audience.


As an example, when Jeremy wrote to the list this is what appearing in
my mail window:

When an empty message arrives I presume it was sent by accident. He
sent three messages - all looked empty. Only after Mr Tea responded did
I bother to ask why he could get something where I couldn't. A quick
squiz at the raw source shows that the multi-part mail headers of
Jeremy's messages are badly formed. Did everyone else get a badly
formed multi-part mime message from Jeremy, who is using Apple Mail
(2.746.2) or is my mail client, Apple Mail (2.623), doing something
funky?
