Message: [QUOTE="Brian Tillman [MVP - Outlook], post: 13111701"] As you read, Outlook 2007 uses Word for HTML and Word does not support all the HTML that Internet Explorer and other browsers do. True. Plain Text BY DEFINITION allows no formatting. You cannot embed images in a Plain Text message. This is not new. It's true for all versions of Outlook (and any text-creation environment). Only other Outlook users can read Rich Text messages properly, so if you plan to embed objects in the message, HTML is your best bet. I tend to eschew formatted messages. Rarely can I not convey what I wish using Plain Text. However, If I have to demonstrate something with, say, a screen shot of a dialogue box, I'll use HTML. If the receiver's mail client is set to receive everything as Plain Text, nothing you can do will allow him to see embedded objects or the formatting you've designed. He'll probably see your logo as an attachment and all other formatting will be lost. [/QUOTE]
