Newbie: SMTP HTML Question
« on: December 08, 2005, 09:54:39 AM »
Hi,
I'm working with FormprocessorPro a commercial mailform script. But i'm getting some strange MIME problesm. I contacted the maker of the script and he checked his stuff and his comment was "This is rather your SMTP server problem. Please ask your hosting provider if it is possible to send HTML email messages by your scripts using localhost SMTP" :-o

Now as we are the hosting provider with SME 6.5r1 i'm lost.
How can i make this work. Please help.
Cheers :-)  
Mike

The SMTP server doesn't mess with content at all (other than to add headers) - it either rejects it, or passes it on. Yep, it's possible to send HTML email messages - as you can verify for yourself.
