There are several ways to determine what type of emails you should be sending and it really helps to know your audience.
HTML or Text Emails for Email Marketers
The idea of what type of email to send to one’s recipients has frequently been debated by email marketers. Some believe that text emails are the only way to go while others prefer HTML. Then, there are others on the fence that like plain text with a little HTML mixed in here or there. There are several ways to determine what type of emails you should be sending and it really helps to know your audience. For example, if your subscribers frequently praise your text emails then you might want to stick with this method. More likely than not if you use all text for your marketing email purposes you won’t get much response. There is one easy way to figure out what type of email will work best for your subscribers and that is to test them.
Send out an HTML email to a small portion of your email list and then an email that is exactly the same, but with plain text. Then, sit back and see which one gets more bites. It is almost guaranteed that the HTML email will garner more interest and response than the plain text emails. All too often email marketer forget to test their market, but this is the easiest and most cost effective way to find out what works. When you send an email in text and it doesn’t get returned and you send the same email in HTML and it has a 75% return rate then you will certainly notice that this is a worthwhile way to send your emails. Sure, the test will take a little bit of time and you will have to track the results. But , if you don’t do a small test to find out what type of emails your customers want to receive then you are doing yourself a injustice.
Grab Viewers’ Attention

Ads and other types of marketing material that is drab and without a lot of thought and polish simply won’t be noticed by your subscribers. HTML emails are more popular because they have more graphics and show what your company is all about. HTML emails reinforce the brand while showing readers all types of information from healthy eating and dining out to cell phone plans and saving money.

The Internet is all about communication and email and newsreader programs are central to that. So why do most people not bother looking beyond the mail application that comes with their browser?
Outlook Express is a program commonly used for handling email and newsgroup messages. If your browser comes with a program to deal with email and newsgroups, then it may seem there is no need to look somewhere else, but how else are you going to be sure you are using the best program for your needs?
Most alternatives will cost money of course. Whatever you choose, Internet Explorer will use it as a mail client as long as you’ve instructed it to do so. Select Tools, Options, Programs to find the relevant setting.
Anonymous Messages
Email would be great if you only got messages from friends and colleagues, but unfortunately many people get large quantities of spam. One approach is to try a little detective work, by viewing the message header. In Outlook Express, right click on the message and select Properties, Details, Message Source. Look for the first Received field, which will look something like, ?Received: from host.com [123.123.123.123].
Enter the host name at SpamCop and it may give you an email address of the spammer’s ISP. Send the ISP a complaint attaching a full copy of the unwanted message and leave them to deal with it. Most ISPs explicitly forbid spamming, and the offender will probably lose their account. Don’t expect too much though, as some spammers use software that can forge their host name, while others send messages with free accounts on the web.
Another method is to complain to your ISP. If they implement spam filters to reduce this kind of mail getting through, then they need to hear when and why the filters aren’t working.
Day-to-day Problem Solving
There are a vast number of things that can go wrong with email and news software.
If you?re seeing error messages telling you that the host or server is not found when picking up mail, check that you’ve set up the correct server names for your ISP, Tools, Accounts, Properties, Servers.
If you have multiple ISP accounts, be aware that most won’t let you send email if you’ve dialed in via another ISP. You can’t connect to Hotmail and then send your Yahoo! Mail, for example. This is a good thing as it cuts opportunities for spamming.
Sometimes you may send an email and find it gets sent straight back to you (known as bouncing). Messages may be bounced for all kinds of reasons ? you might have used an address that is no longer valid, or there may be a temporary problem at the other end. There’s usually a message accompanying your email that explains things, so make sure you read it. It is a good idea to delete messages in the deleted folder items periodically, including the sent folder. This saves disk space, otherwise it keeps getting bigger and slows down Outlook Express. That’s definitely a bad thing.
Is your address book short of names because it’s too much hassle to manually add them? Get organized without wasting time by right clicking on a message, then selecting, Add sender to address book. The downside is that if you get infected by an email worm , it will send itself to everyone in your address book in order to replicate.
