How are you generating and formatting the email? Are you doing it in VB.NET/C# with System.Net.Mail? If you are doing it the way I think you may be, I think your best bet would be to pass an array of true/false values when you format the body of the email using the template, and check/uncheck the checkboxes in the email using these values. For example:

//Determine which checkboxes are checked and add them to the array.
Dim checkedBoxes New ArrayList
checkedBoxes.Add(IIf(chk_first.Checked, "checked", ""))
checkedBoxes.Add(IIf(chk_second.Checked, "checked", ""))
checkedBoxes.Add(IIf(chk_third.Checked, "checked", ""))

//Then you'd have your email generation code here. This is only the body part of it.
email.Body = String.Format(File.ReadAllText([YourTemplateFile]), checkedBoxes.ToArray())

Of course I’m making a lot of assumptions here. Then, in your template file, each checked value would use a true/false value from the array, so the first one would have:

<input type="checkbox" name="check1" value="check1" {0} />

I hope this helps. If I am way off, post the code you are using to generate and send the email and I’ll be able to help more.
