Hi there all,

just a quick one really. Can anyone tell me where to find out about sending emails with the advert within the email as an image?

Like the ones we get from ebay, paypal, amazon, etc...

Thanks

Create the image, and send the email as HTML with the image displayed.

I think that's what you mean.

Depends on your email client. What do you use?

I just use a free pop3 mailbox with my webspace.

I want to connect it to Outlook though, so that I do need to keep signing in.

Would this help me?

No idea. I've never used outlook.

However, google tell us...

Thanks for the info fez.

I have had a play around with the email stuff, but I still cannot get the image to display. It just comes through as html in text?

I have a yahoo and hotmail account I could use also if this helps??

Any ideas?

Thanks
