Description

Really appreciate this module, it's solving a number of issues in one swoop. One thing I need some help with. What would be the easiest way to format emails in lieu of an input-fomat-selection section? Do the invite emails simply adopt whatever the default input format is for the site as a whole?

http://drupal.org/project/htmlmail

Works fantastically .. and moreover switches your whole site to use html mail for all outgoing mails... pay close attention to the requirements of mail clients though... so inline style good .. attached css style sheets bad .. also it is good to link all images and not actually include them as attachments.

You can setup a sitewide header and footer for all html mails and use wysiwyg such as fckeditor to create the message body, works a charm .. or you can create the html mail in another app and paste it into the field .. just be sure to use the full html input format.

Good luck!
