I am creating an HTML e-mail to send via Outlook. When viewed with Internet
Explorer the link colors look correct, but when imported into Outlook or
Outlook Express, they are vastly different. I made sure I was using web-safe
colors, but no change.
The web version is at http://www.goldthread.com/gtad.html What I want is for
the ad to approximate the look of my website, www.goldthread.com.

If anyone wants to work with me on this I can send a version by e-mail.

Thanks,
Steve S.

The links look pretty much the same color to me.
 
I did find an online tutorial which says that if you put the FONT tags
directly next to the linked text, you can control the color that way. It
works, but you just get that fixed color, no hover color, active link, or
visited link. I chose to go with this option because at least I can choose a
color consistent with the look of my website, which style I'm trying to
follow.
