Sending emails in HTML format

How do you do this?

 

Outlook Express?

I bet you'd rather use PHP instead, right?
Well, in this case have a look at this PEAR class:
http://pear.php.net/package/Mail

HTH, cheers!

 

Have a look here I always use this for sending html mail using php. I hope you will get some idea from it.

 

Is there a way to do it in perl/cgi? I would think it is very similar.

 

If you want to send with perl you need module MIME::Lite and here is the example of code

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use MIME::Lite;

# SendTo email id
my $email = ‘user@somewhere.com’;

# create a new MIME Lite based email
my $msg = MIME::Lite->new
(
Subject => “HTML email test”,
From    => ‘YOU@somewhere.com’,
To      => $email,
Type    => ‘text/html’,
Data    => ‘<H1>Hello</H1><br>This is a test email.
Please visit our site <a href=”http://somewhere.com/”>somewhere.com</a><hr>’
);

$msg->send();
