  The simple way to send HTML e-mail is to replace the line 
"Content-Type: text/plain" in the header with the line: 
"Content-Type: text/html". Actually, using MIME, you can link the images
into the e-mail itself. 

  Also, you can use a HTML-Enablesd mailer such as Netscape to send the
e-mail as HTML.

  One warning: If you use "Content-Type: text/plain", the e-mail will be
unreadable in text-only mail readers. A better solution is to use a
multipart MIME message, see the MIME RFCs for details.
