JIm Hamilton writes "I have been trying to find a way to use xp_sendmail to generate HTML based email. All of the newsgroup posting indicate this is not possible and I should use CDONTS or other SMTP based mail service instead. However I do not want to use an SMTP based product (I like the MAPI profile used by sendmail) because I am also hosting a firewall on the same machine that routes traffic for email ports (25 and 110) to my exchange server. Everytime I try to use and SMTP server on the same machine it has to take over those ports... so using an SMTP based email object is not viable unless I reconfigure my network and machine layout. Any ideas on products that allow HTML based email and still use the MAPI profile on the device?

Thanks,

Jim Hamilton"
