Hello,

I put together an html email announcement for a client and sent it to him using Thunderbird...all looked fine in my gmail and hotmail accounts. However, if I chose to insert "moz-do-not-send=true" in the img src tags, so as to have linked images, rather than embedded images, he is unable to view the images in the email...and there is no "display images" option on his end. So, I went ahead and sent him one with embedded images, which he is able to view, but when he inserts the same html code into his distribution tool, he is unable to preview it.

I'm anxious because the deadline is today and I'm cannot for the life of me figure out what might not be wrong. My code is:

Code: [ Select ]
<table width="640" height="688" border="0" cellpadding="0"

Good news! I solved my own issue! For anyone with similar frustrations, I simply added "http://" to the image address and viola! Fixed.

I wonder where the email clients actually looked for those images without the http:// in there. :scratchhead:
Strong with this one, the sudo is.
