How to use html in body of PB mail?

[T4r4ntul4]

Hi all,

I noticed you cant use html in body of the PureBasic mail. Are there any working solutions to this problem, working with version PB 5.50?

Any help is appreciated!

Hi,

the problem is the Content-Type which is used by PB:

Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

For html it should be:

Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

At the moment you have no chance to modify this.

Code: Select all

SetMailAttribute(0, #PB_Mail_Custom, "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1")

Does not replace the original part. It adds a second one which is ignored (by Thunderbird)
So a new attribute is required:

Code: Select all

#PB_Mail_ContentType

Place a feature reuest, since Fred had already done some stuff for PB 5.60.

Not being able to send html mail is a pain.
