Hi John, Have you tried: Select Message -> Forward As -> Inline [1] or edit---> preferences--> composer preferences---> forward style and change it for the drop down and choose inline [2] ? In IW/Tbird, Message->"Forward As"->Attachment succeeds at forwarding graphics-laden html mail to a gmail account. -- Featuring GRATUITOUS ALIEN NUDITY -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

It tries to do the same that Microsoft produts do, but in a different way. It, however, allows one to work in a first world way, but this is not the default, and requires the user to know its way around Gmail's "features". -- Eduardo M KALINOWSKI edua...@kalinowski.com.br -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Lossless communication between the two is virtually impossible, mainly because the second world keeps changing what language they want to speak. Evolution, KMail, and Mutt are first worlders. Thunderbird and IceOwl are first world translators. Outlook and Outlook Express are second worlders and they couldn't care less about talking to first worlders. You might be able to find a 'Forward as Attachment' option in Evolution that should preserve the email you were sent rather than quoting it into another email. Failing that, you might be able to do what you want in IceOwl. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/\_/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
