HTML in the body of EMAIL

Anon

Hi,
I want to send out mass e-mail to clients, and it has to be in the html format.

I'm planning on using mail() with the header:

Content-Type: text/html\n

The body of email will be read from the html file which I want to send. All of the images will reside on my server and will reference them as follows:
http://www.server.com/imaga.jpg

Should I anticipate any problems?

Thanks
Steve

i just did the same. the image is a link in this way. so if the recipient wants to re-read his e-mail off line, he will get the broken image links. well, people have to live with this broken image links thing. i tried to find the solution for that in the past few days, such as embedding the images into e-mail body. no easy solutions i found so far.

and the images should be in full http address. or you should have a <base> tag in your html file.

well, if you find better solutions, let me know.

Hui,
here's a link to a tutorial for a more complex MIME class that can send jpg... attachments
