I’m sending an automatic html email from my website. In my email I set some text to red color and the font to a certain font type. When I view the html email from yahoo mail, The red color is applied, but the font is not applied. Why is it?

Also, when I try to view the html source code of the yahoo mail web page, I cannot find my html email content on this html source code. why is it?

    You can use css inline only, and from my experience you need to do it with tables, since not all email services (none maybe) understand divs that well, I also recommend to stay within 600 px wide for the template, since its usually displayed in “panes” like yahoo mail, gmail, outlook etc. there’s a lot of material you can check over at this page:

    there’s no html, body or title declaration, just start with <table></table> like if was your body.

    outlook 2007 will probably be the one with the most restraints.

    good luck
