That's what I would have expected, but I thought I would give it a go today. It worked!

A bit of bold or italics can help to make your "following comment" stand out in the email they get. I haven't tried <a href> yet though...

OK, I tried:

Code: Select all
<i>test message
<br/>
<br/>
Mail me at <a href="mailto:w@ze@ziggo.nl">w@ze@ziggo.nl</a><br/><br/>
Don't forget to check <a href="http://www.waze.com">the Waze website</a>.<br/>
<br/>
Greetings!<br/>

(real responses will have a valid mail address ofcourse)

I got:

waze mail.jpg (29.12 KiB) Viewed 526 times


Both links are working in my ISP's webmail. The mail address opens a new outgoing message and the website link goes to my browser, so it seems that at least basic html is working.

Wow, I am floored. When did they add this? Well, anyway, I'm off to HTML the crap out of my update request responses now. Thanks for finding this!

EDIT: This sure makes it a mess for another editor to try and read in the Cartouche GUI though. :(

Of course the recipient's email system must support HTML and they must have their client, webmail client, etc. set to display it.

Most email systems do support HTML - this is a good idea.

I've decided that while I love love love to format things with embedded links, it makes a huge mess the way I like it (I've got divs and spans and linebreaks and styles...).

So, I am probably just going to go with the easiest way to make the linebreaks work without having to use multiple tags. And that is by using <pre></pre> tags, which tells the renderer to follow the line break formatting of text in between the tags.
