Hi,

I would like to send HTML type email by Progress. My Progress version is Version 8. I can send plain text email with attachment by MAPI. However, I could not use the same method to send HTML email. The size of the HTML email is much smaller comparing with email with jpg attachment. Would you please give me some idea of it?

Thanks for your kind attention and assistance.

BR,
Ronald.
 
I don't have an answer, but here's an idea...

You could use SMTP and sockets.

Since you are on v8 there's no native 4GL socket support but you can use
winsock ( wsock32.dll ). I think you can find some examples on using
winsock with Progress @Jurjen Dijkstra's - global-shared.com. Other
then msdn.com and the resources on the net.

You can either use the freeframework.com's smtpmail.p as a starting point
or alter the program to use with winsock.

I haven't checked but maybe there's even a v8 compatible version.
If there isn't maybe you can contibute your own and save someone trouble.
