posted October 17, 2003 3:09 PM I use this code to send and html mail that is in the same directory of my application (test.htm). The probleme is I receive the html part as an attachment in Outlook. With Smtp1.Message .Content = "" .To.Add txtTo.Text .From = txtFrom.Text .Cc.Add txtCc.Text .Bcc.Add txtBcc.Text .Subject = txtSubject.Text .AddHtml App.Path & "\test.htm" End With Smtp1.Login txtServer.Text SetCapabilities Smtp1.To.Clear Smtp1.To.Add txtTo.Text Smtp1.From = txtFrom.Text Smtp1.Send |

posted October 17, 2003 4:18 PM I just used this code and here is what I see: 1) When the message first comes in, I see a paper clip indicating an attachment 2) Once the message is opened, either by double-clicking the message or letting it open in the preview pane, the paper clip disappears and the message looks exactly like I expect. |

posted January 20, 2004 8:39 AM I have been using email tool - with great sucess (sending HTML). So I don't really have a problem - other than I am curious why html with pictures show-up with an 'attachment' vs. part of the actual email. We are competing for a contract (to email out newsletters) - and our competition's newsletter doesn't include the 'attachment paperclip.' Is there anything that I can manipulate in code to prevent this? |

posted January 20, 2004 8:42 AM The paper clip means an attachment that is saved as a file meant to be saved on the clients computer. No paper clip means the attachment is "inline" and is meant to be displayed by the clients email program. |

posted January 20, 2004 8:50 AM Right. But the issue (at least in the client's mind) is an attachment means potential virus (yes I know pic files shouldn't). I was just curious to know why inline pictures show up as attachements - or if there was something that I needed to change either in the html file that we are sending and/or the code; to avoid the paper-clip. |

posted January 20, 2004 9:03 AM I don't know. You'd have to ask Microsoft about that one. From my experience, Outlook Express behaves differently than Outlook. Outlook always shows a paper clip. |
