How can I send HTML emails with Win Live Mail...

I tried creating an html Document in Dreamweaver - very plain, just text with
a few pics on the right side and a logo below the text - but I need the
emails to be in this format. Plus I have a Black background I want to use.

Well, I try to send it and it strips it of the pics (externally linked to a
server with absolute links) How can I do this with WLM?

How are you getting the html document into WLM?
Where is it stripped? In Sent items?

Hi, Ruester. In Tools / Options ... look in Send and select HTML for your
mail sending format. Then, on the Compose Tab, under Stationery, checkmark
Mail and the Select button becomes enabled. From there, you can choose a
predefined template or create your own. If you have already created an .htm
/ .html file, you can navigate to it and import it as your stationery
template. ... vanilla

Thanks Ron and Vanilla!

Ron: In the New Message window, I went to Insert - Text from file, and
changed the lower dropdown (filename) to look for .html files, and inserted
it that way.

Vanilla: I will try that... will post back soon.

If your HTML has image links to a web server, then in Tools, Options,
Send, Mail, HTML settings you want to Uncheck the Send Pictures option.
