As far as I can tell, the emails you send using Excel, Word, and Outlook are pretty limited. For what you're describing, I think you'd be better using a "real" email service. I've used a few, most notably Constant Contact and Vertical Response. If you're doing infrequent emails, I suggest VR, since you can buy email credits when you need them. One caveat: all these email providers require that your list is strictly opt-in. Perhaps I should do a post on this topic? -walt Hi Wendy.

When it comes through on a Blackberry, it's even worse. Unless people know to go and change the layout to print layout, they may just delete the email. Is there anyway to set the default so that it sends as PRINT layout only? I have tried sending as HTML as well as an attachment and the HTML isn't even showing my images. Please can you help! Many thanks Dear Walter,

Draws a strong, appropriate line of similarity between enterprises that high-tech fans refuse to believe are similar. Great insight and comparison.
