Description
two issues really:
one is that two emails being sent everytime.
second is that i am trying to use html mail instead of mime mail, but not working: i have a custom body and footer tpl file. i am not typing any tags into the content creation form. mail is sent but all html tags from my tpl file are stripped from body. tags remain in the footer. i am sending as plain text from simplenews, as mimemail is not installed.
sent mail structure looks like:
...mail header info, mime type etc...
...plain text from the body tpl file, no or opening tag...
...footer stuff from footer tpl file...
using latest dev

hello again
still havent figured out while two mails being sent, but realised at least, only happening in hotmail.
and i've realised that simplenews is stripping all tags from the body tpl files, which is why its not working.
any help would be great

solved both issues. can send fully html simplenews very well without mimemail now, using html mail module.
dont know if this is a bug, but here is the solution to the 2 emails. on the actual create newsletter form, if i delete my hotmail address from the list of test emails, simplenews still sends an email to that address, but only one. i suspect then that simplenews is sending 1. an email to the address in the test emails list, 2. a copy to the site email (which is also my hotmail address) hence 2 emails. i havenet tested sending from another user etc to confirm.
