Hi All,

I am facing problem in HTML_MAIL plugin. The detail has given below:-

  1. if we have default option to compose mail in Plain Text, while clicking on HTML tool for composing mail the contents written in plain text would be lost. Why it happens? is it limitation of this plugin?
  2. If we have default option to compose mail in HTML, and for writing a mail in plain text we clicked on plain text tool. but the HTML formatting tools does not disappear. even the html formatting does not get change.

Early response for this concerns is highly appreciated.

Best Regards
Deepak

I can't remember if it's supposed to carry the text over, but I guess
not.  It's not all that easy to do so, and the fact that there is more
than one backend editor might complicate that.  A partial work-around
is to install the quicksave plugin and make sure you give quicksave a
couple seconds to save your email text before you press the HTML
button.  Quicksave will then offer to re-populate your email fields.
Or you could just make sure to click the HTML button before you begin
composing your email.

The plugin strips the HTML *after* you click send.  The outgoing
message will be in plain text.  This is not a bug and it works fine
AFAIK.

It isn't very polite to ask for timely responses when you are getting
this software and the support for free.
