Hi all,

when send e-mail via utl_smtp, is there a specific string to send to the "write_data" method to change the mail type from text to html ?

The following dose not seem to work:
content="text/html; charset=us-ascii

Thanks.

No. SMTP is the delivery protocol. It is oblivious to the contents (the Internet Message Body) that you have constructed and are transmitting via the DATA command.

To construct a "html" e-mail (a thing of evil as this is contrary to e-mail standards that dictates e-mail should be text/ascii only), requires you the programmer to construct a valid Internet Message body.

You can refer to the RFCs for that. RFC Index
