Multi-part MIME HTML emails

[gwh]

Hi everyone,

I've created an html invitation using Dreamweaver, and I'd like to be able to send this html email using Roundcube Webmail. If I click on "edit html source" I'm able to paste the code in and send the html version successfully, however since I don't know which email recipients will have html switched on in their email clients, I'd like to be able to send a multi-part MIME version of the email which includes both the html part and also a plain text version sent in the one email. If I do this it will mean that those people who have html turned on will see the full featured html version and those that prefer plain text will receive the plain text version.

I know that third party email service providers like iContact, Mailchimp etc. provide this functionality but I'm not sure about Roundcube Webmail.

Can someone tell me if it's possible to send this Multi-part type email using Webmail?

Appreciate any help.

If HTML composing is enabled then RoundCube automatically creates multipart messages:
