Hi,
I would like to send and HTML email content programatically.
Currently, I am using <XBODY> (instead of <BODY>) and I put all html content under that. In yahoo email, all HTML format emails that I see comes within <XBODY> and that is why I used it.

it this the right way to send HTML email content programatically to normal user? will this cause email to go to junk folder?
Is there any standard way to send HTML content in email?

I've never seen the XBODY tag being used.

As for being classified as Junk Mail, that has nothing to do with whether it is HTML or plain text.

Programmatically, I just use the "content-type = HTML" in my coding to format HTML emails.
