Sending Stationary Mail to non-Mac users

Has anyone experience with sending Stationary mail to non-Mac users? The html files that are created in mac OS X require "downloading" when received on PCs. Does this depend on html friendly servers or some settings? Any suggestions?

G4, Mac OS X (10.5)

I'm having the same problem. Still looking for answers. Does anyone know how to save apple stationary once you have inserted your own pictures etc... as a custom template/stationary? The option to do so is not highlighted - only when you have a blank template can you use this option. I would like to be able to reuse the same stationary with the photos that I have selected rather than having to reinsert them every time.

Having stationary in e-mail is not a new concept. Microshaft was doing it years ago with Outlook Express. The short answer is that you can send e-mail with stationary to a user on any platform.

The need to download the graphics is purely a client side issue. Automatic downloading of graphics in e-mail is normally disabled by default on most modern e-mail clients.

This is due to the fact that spammers would include a picture in their message that was actually homed on a remote server. Once your machine downloads the remote graphic to display in the message, the spammer knows that your e-mail address is valid.

If your client, regardless of whether you are on Windows, OS X, or even web based, if configured to automatically download graphics then stationary will work.
