How to SEND HTML formatted mail??

mine is still greyed out, after selecting Rich.

Open Mail preferences, click on the Composing icon in the toolbar, set the Message Format: drop down menu to Rich Text.

AHHHH

What you can do to make HTML for Apple Mail is to make it in an HTML editor, open it with Safari use CMD+i - a new mail message will appear in a moment with the web page in the email body.

You can't do any major editing in Mail, you'll have to go back to the HTML file. But it works.

You can also use Copy (from a web page) and then (Edit) Paste as HTML (that what Paste as HTML is for, not for creating HTML email). You can also user Paste as HTML to copy/paste a HTML email you receive or part of a HTML email.
