Hi Pat,
I'd suggest that you try using SMTP_Quicksend instead of the
lower-level SMTP functions. Read up on SMTP_Quicksend and I think
you'll find that you can do everything you need with that, and (in our
pretty thorough testing) it sends emails that are accepted by Outlook,
Yahoo, Gmail, Mail, and others.
Thanks for your reply.
We already have Write Pro letters going out using smtp_quicksend which
are received correctly formatted as you note.
The issue is that smtp_quicksend does not allow for the sending of
attachments hence the reason we are using smpt_body in some cases.

Hi all,
We have an issue sending a Write Pro letter in the body of an
email to
Microsoft Outlook.
1. We export the Write Pro object into a variable:
* WP EXPORT VARIABLE*($PrintLetter;$Email_Body;wk web page
html 4D)
2. Then we use IC's SMTP_body to build the body of the email,
specifying
that the format is HTML ie option = 4
*/ SMTP_Body/* ($SMTP_ID;$Email_Body;4)
3. When this email is sent out, email clients such as Apple Mail
receive
the body correctly formatted. However the body of the email in
Microsoft Outlook clients shows as Times New Roman, and some of the
other formatting of the document is lost.
Can anyone tell us how to get Microsoft Outlook to honour the
formatting
Cheers,
