Topic: Html e-mail?

[Kasper Morup]

Hello

How do I receive "html e-mails" with SME server 5.6? What do I need to do?

erm.....

Use an email client that supports & has enabled html eg. Outlook Express

Look in /home/httpd/html/horde/imp/config/mime_drivers.php
Find the line that says:
$mime_drivers['imp']['html']['inline'] = false;
and change it to:
$mime_drivers['imp']['html']['inline'] = true;

Hi Joseph,

Does this enable HTML emails viewable from the web browser ?

I have made the chages but viewing from the web, the pages are still showing the HTML code.

Perhaps I have mistaken the intention here.

Cheers

If what you're talking about is the webmail system, the change Joseph posted should allow you to view _properly-formed_ HTML messages.  One aspect of being properly formed is that the body has the proper MIME type, namely text/html.  However, for some reason (crappy clients, most likely), many HTML email messages are sent with the wrong MIME type.  IMP won't display those, as they're badly-formed to begin with.  Lookout, I understand, is less picky.

Thanks Dan

I'll keep an eye out for some good MIME emails :~)

Thanks again

Dave
