Problem:

when i write an e-mail that includes photos, clip arts, Smart arts and
various font formating (using either Rich text or Html format) then send it
(even to my self) the received email doesnt look at all like the one i wrote
?!?
it looks corrupted, visual objects (clip arts, photos.. etc) lose their
transparet background and get a white one instead :-(

Please HELP :-(
 
Email was designed from the beginning for plain-text. You cannot rely on
your recipients being able to view your multi-media message in the same
format you send it, as many people (if they have any sense at all) will
read all emails in plain-text. Nor do you know what email client they are
going to be reading it in and what capabilities it might have.

You could spend a looooong time trying to get this to work, or you could
just send them a plaintext message with the appropriate info and a link to a
web page or a pdf ( both of which are designed for this sort of thing).

Regarding HTML vs. TXT email.

I cannot recommend to target the lowest common denominator by sending
Plain Text email.
You simply don't do stuff for the sake of 5% of recipients if it in
some way compromises the other 95%.
 
Your reply ar really Odd !!

im Talking about Outlook , and people who have it. Also those who have
Hotmail.

now those two are supposed to support the multi-media emails right !!

now the question is that EVEN MUTLI-MEDIA EMAILS THAT I WRITE THEM AND SEND
THEM TO MYYYYYYYYYY SELFFFFFFFFFFFFF IN OUTLOOK THEY GET CORRUPTED !!

got the point now !
