Whats the difference between text-based and html-based email?
A text-based email message is one whose primary input and output are based on text rather than graphics. The primary benefits of text-based email is increased speed of message delivery. In addition, your message is less dependent on the recipient’s computer and/or type of connection: phone, DSL, T1 or broadband. HTML stands for Hyper Text Mark-up Language. It is the dominant language used to create web-driven content. HTML’s primary benefit is its ability to integrate text and graphics to more effectively communicate your message.
