Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.When you want to use Simplenews Statistics you need to send your e-mails in HTML. Plain text is not allowed because we can't add a simple image to the body of the e-mail. When there's no image added in the body of the e-mail they can't be tracked.
Todo: add all dependencies and install requirements.

dieuweThere are a few things we can do here, but most of these just involve better documentation:
Note that Simplenews doesn't check whether it is actually possible to send HTML email (as far as I can tell), even when this option is selected.
We can't add a dependency to the
simplenews_statistics.infofile as we won't know what HTML email module the user might have installed or want to install.We can't add a warning message that no HTML email module is enables since, as far as I know, there is no way of detecting that.

dieuweI have added a drupal_set_message on the settings page and on the statistics tab for each newsletter node that will show a warning if the category format has not been set to HTML.
That is probably be best we can do other than what has already been added to the documentation.
