Maybe this has been asked before, but its new to me. I've sent pages by email from a PC (using MSIE) before, so I know it can be done from there.

However, how can you do it from a Mac? It would seem that if it can be done from a PC then why not from the Macintosh? - and how??

Methods of sending HTML email depends on your email client, so I would find a forum related to your email client and ask there.

However, I would also point out that many people, myself included, don't like HTML email because it includes a huge amount of bloat which is unnecessary simply to get the message across. My general point when sending an email or making a posting is that if it can't be written in plain text, it shouldn't be written at all. Remember that not all email clients can read HTML email, so you may end up stopping certain people reading your email.
My recommendation would be to send a plain text email with a hyperlink to a web page, which can have all the fancy graphics, HTML, CSS etc.
