Send e-mail in HTML format via Outlook automation

[vladab]

Hi, folks,

I want to send e-mail message to our clients via Outlook, taking their addresses and names from Access 2000 database. I am trying to send the letter as HTML page with Images and different formatting. I use .HTMLBody property of MailItem object like .HTMLBody = strHTML where strHTML is HTML text.
When I send it to our internal e-mail addresses I can see it as a web page I created. On the external addresses it looks just a text with formatting and links to all images.
I have a feeling, Outlook rebuilds my HTML text on the run.

Does anybody know how to fix that problem?
Is the tas can be done with Outlook or I have to use another approach?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Vlada.
