I have created an HTML email which i sending from outlook.

Quite a few address are bouncing it back - is this becuase it thinks its spam. Is their anyway to get round this problem.

The amail consists of mostly text with 4 pics

Thanks

Ben
 
can you post the exact message the return gives you?
*bounces usually contain details as to what happened
 
you may want to try attaching the pictures and not including them in the body of your email.

I would guess they are being bounced because of the JPEG exception scare... not because of spam
 
Is their anyway to get round this problem?

Yes, don't send HTML mail.

In other words, NO, if they filter on that, you will not get around it. If you could, the filter would not be of much use would it?

If 'something' 'somewhere' gives 'some' error, expect random guesses or no replies at all. Please specify details.

the only other way is to post the pictures on a website and allow the people to download it from there.

or if you want to change the extention from jpg to doc and tell the person to change it back to jpg to view it them that may work, unless you have a really good network supv running some highly specialized scanning software!
