Re: Adding some HTML to all outbound messages?
Never tried it but if you put the link in a disclaimer it might work.

RE: Adding some HTML to all outbound messages?
Out CEO wants us to add some HTML to the top of all outbound messages. It is a graphic with a hotlink to our website. 10K total size. How about telling them that the in-flight magazine was wrong, and it can't be done cheaply? It may be the future, but the future will upset a lot of people in the present. How about asking him/her to compromise with a non-html link to the website, at the bottom of the message? I remember seeing evidence somewhere that people are more likely to click on a link positioned at the bottom of a mail, because that is where they end up after they've read it. Even a CEO should understand that logic? Oops ... used both CEO and logic in one sentence.

Title: RE: Adding some HTML to all outbound messages? If you must do it I know that the 4.3 Version of MailSweeper for SMTP will allow you to do this. Although I for one would talk him out of it.
