stiksandstones Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I did a search, but found topics only related to the newsletter feature, I goto TOOLS>>SEND EMAIL, I send myself (my own customer account) an email and paste in some simple HTML, the mails come through fine, but its html code, not what I want. Is it possible to send html emails from the admin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but check this out: admin panel/email options/Use MIME HTML When Sending Emails (set to "true") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♥Vger Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 If you are referring to sending out html newsletters, instead of text, then go to admin/includes/modules/newsletters/newsletters.php - and where you see this: $mimemessage->add_text($this->content); change it to: $mimemessage->add_html($this->content); Vger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardsandwars Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Keep in mind that the problem with this type of fix that Rhea suggests will not send a 2 part mime message. If the customer is using an email client that does not support HTML (hotmail, pocket pc, palm, blackberry, etc) they will only see the straight html, tags and all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: As of Oct 2006, I'm not as active in this forum as I used to be, but I still work with osC quite a bit. If you have a question about any of my posts here, your best bet is to contact me though either Email or PM in my profile, and I'll be happy to help.

stiksandstones Posted July 29, 2005 Author Share Posted July 29, 2005 I dont mean the NEWSLETTER manager thing....I am talking about the SEND EMAIL ADMIN>>>TOOLS>>>SEND EMAIL Where you can choose send to all customers, or choose one person, I need to send HTML email from that.

Guest Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Wizardsandwars brought up a good point. You said you sent an email to yourself. If you sent it to a "personal" email account, any chance that email account isn't set to support HTML? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaunklink Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 similar problem......the emails sent from my OSC setup are headed with text/plain not text/html.....I can't seem to figure this out..... some email clients pick up a link like "http://www.test.com" and automatically make it a clickable link.....however, some do not. I'm not trying to send any kind of media, I just want my text links to be clickable. in entourage for MAC it looks ok, but in MAIL 2.0 for MAC is is just plain text.. either way though, the headers in both programs are text/plain any suggestions?
