Those are HTML formatted emails --

IMHO, they are kind of annoying, since your email client has to hit the web to make them look right, and consequently, it takes them a while to load up when you open them from Outlook (or your favorite email client) --

Just check out formatting options in your email client, and find where it says "HTML", and you will be on the straight and narrow.

Hi thnaks for the reply. I created a test email page and attached it to my email, but when I received it, all Is aw was a red X were the photos should of been there was no background color, and and only little bit of text? I checked the formatting both ways, and nothing????

Is your email client set up to receive HTML emails?? And if so, did you have an active connection to the internet so that you could retrieve the pics in question?? And if so, then double check the source code of the email to make sure that the pics had absolute references (i.e.

http://somesite.com/somePic.jpg)

Dunno about a bgColor -- if the email client is set up to interpret HTML email, then the bgcolor should have come through regardless.
