<title>Using HTML format to enhance emails</title>

<p>Normally, you cannot set text styles or insert pictures in email. However, most newer email programs can display images and text styles in addition to basic alignment and paragraph formatting. They do this with HTML, just like web pages do.</p>

<p>Certaines personnes n'ont pas de logiciel de messagerie capable d'afficher le HTML, ou ils préfèrent ne pas recevoir des messages en HTML car c'est plus lent à télécharger et à afficher. C'est pour cette raison que Evolution envoie les messages en texte simple, sauf si vous lui demandez explicitement d'utiliser le HTML.</p>

<p>You can change the format of an email message from plain text to HTML by choosing <guiseq><gui>Format</gui><gui>HTML</gui></guiseq> from the menu bar.</p>
<p>To send all your mail as HTML by default, enable <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Composer Preferences</gui><gui>Default Behavior</gui><gui>Format messages in HTML</gui></guiseq>.</p>
