Index (5 topics) Introduction E-mail client programs (Turning Off HTML or MIME to use a Remailer System) Suggestions for HTML users Examples of HTML/MIME messages References What is wrong with sending HTML or MIME messages? There are now six main reasons for NOT doing this: 1. Many E-mail and Usenet News reader programs, usually the mail and news reader programs that come with browser packages, allow users to include binary attachments (MIME or other encoding) or HTML (normally found on web pages) within their E-mail messages. This makes URLs into clickable links and it means that graphic images, formatting, and even color coded text can also be included in E-mail messages. While this makes your E-mail interesting and pretty to look at, it can cause problems for other people who receive your E- mail because they may use different E-mail programs, different computer systems, and different application programs whose files are often not fully compatible with each other. Any of these can cause trouble with in-line HTML (or encoded attachments). Most of the time all they see is the actual HTML code behind the message. And if someone replies to the HTML formatted message, the quoting can render the message even more unreadable.

    Setup O365 Mailbox Access on Macs

    Setup O365 mailbox access on MACs You can use a web browser or an email program on your computer to connect to your email account. Web browser access You connect your Apple computer to your email account by using a web browser in the same way that you connect a Windows computer. Mail program access You can connect to your account automatically, or you can connect by using IMAP or POP. There are three programs you can use to connect to your email account by entering your email address and password: Outlook for Mac 2011 Entourage 2008, Web Services Edition Mail (the email application included with Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard and Mac OS 10.7 Lion) Connecting to your email account by using Outlook for Mac 2011 or Entourage 2008, Web Services Edition provides a more complete email experience than connecting to your email by using IMAP or POP. For example, if you connect using Outlook for Mac 2011 or Entourage 2008, Web Services Edition, you'll be able to synchronize Notes, Tasks, Calendar items, or Categories between Outlook Web App and Outlook for Mac 2011 or Entourage 2008, Web Services Edition. Note: If you're running Entourage 2008, you must install Entourage 2008, Web Services Edition, a free update for Entourage 2008 users. If you're running Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard, you can use the Mail program that's included with Snow Leopard to connect to your account without using IMAP or POP. As with Outlook for Mac 2011 and Entourage 2008, Web Services Edition, the steps for connecting to your account with Mac Mail for Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard only require you to enter your email address and password.
