Many thanks to Sue Mosher [MVP] for her excellent articles about sending html-pages through outlook.

However, I have not managed to make use of the tips as mentioned on the above pages.
For some weird reason my outlook XP tries to email the hmtl-page as an attachment. I am using front page 2002 and outlook 2002. They are upgraded from version 2000. In my opinion MS should really consider that it is possible to export html-pages to outlook from Front page as well. Any idea whether this is working better in front page 2003?
I tried the method below but got an attached html page??

Method 5: Create a new document in Microsoft FrontPage, then use FrontPage's File | Send command. (We tried this in Office XP, but not Office 2000 yet.) The resulting message will include an extraneous two line feeds and horizontal line at the top, but you can easily delete these. This method preserves internal bookmarks. (Thanks to Stephen Green for this tip.)
Be careful with your <img> tags if you use this method, because the message always uses the exact tag from your document, even if you have Outlook set to embed images in outgoing HTML messages. Therefore, the <img> tags will need to point to files available on the Internet. This, in turn, may annoy people who use dial-up Internet connections, since Outlook will try to connect to try to display the images when the recipient opens or previews the message.
