    two things -

    make sure you have the correct header - and use boundries to separate html from ascii.

    your header should have a content-type line that reads as: Content-type: multipart/alternative; boundary="B_3160389466_1951012"

    ... then you use that boundry to separate two more content types in your email.

    the first will be:
    Content-type: text/plain;

    the second will be:
    Content-Type: text/html;

    there's more detail to it... but search google for:
    'content-type:multipart/alternat... and you'll find a reasonable solution.

    alot of it will depend on what email program you're using. If you're using Entourage, you're going to have to set up some account parameters. Outlook Express will be a little different too... hit up google.
