How to Send HTML based e-mail?

[kaizer]

Hello everybody.

I've found the HTML tools in Mail app lacking. I need to send some 'fancy' HTML based email to my client.

As I haven't done it before, please advise on the steps need to send one.

I've created the page in HTML using some programs, how do I sent it via email format(not as an attachment).

Do I need to upload the images onto a webserver before hand and link it there?

Do I need some special software to do it or is there some tips and trick about it?

I'm using an iBook 700Mhz running OsX.6


Thanks in advance.

I send emails to a group of people on a mailing list periodically (and no, it's not spam), and I wanted to use a good OS X app with the HTML capabilities you're talking about. What I discovered is a great app called Maildrop (http://freshlysqueezedsoftware.com/products/maildrop/). It'll do everything you want and then some.
