its not possible to send mails using plain html..you need php or asp for that...

that tutorial will work... it is telling you to make a .html, and attach it to any email, IN YOUR PREVIOUS email software

Actually I have changed my mind. I like webmasters way of doing it.

I've tried to make a page where you type in the recipients email into a text field instead of having to change the email in the code like your example. But i've failed. (noob) Any ideas please?

If my other example worked, try this for changing the email address:
[php]<?php

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

$to = $_POST['email'];
$from = "janedoe@anotherfakedomain.com";
$subject = "This is a test email";
$message = <<<EOF
<html>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
<p align="center">
<b>Hello World!</b>
</p>
</body>
</html>
EOF;

$headers = "From: $from\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";

$success = mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
if ($success)
echo "The email to $to from $from was successfully sent";
else
echo "An error occurred when sending the email to $to from $from";

} else {

?>

<form method="post">
Email: <input type="text" name="email" /><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send the mail" />
</form>

<?php
}

?>[/php]

You know the ones that look like a website in your inbox.

I once got someone to send me the source of a page via hotmail and it showed up looking like I was on the website. You may want to try that.

This is for sending a html-mail using PHP not outlook.
