Is there any way to send HTML formatted mails from code directly on a Windows Phone 7 device?
Someone asked on Stack Overflow:
I have an app where the user can send some data via email, sort of like a report. This works fine but I would like some more formatting. The best thing would be if it was possible to create some HTML code and add it to the mail. Is this possible?
I posted the following answer, which was chosen as the accepted answer and received 3 upvotes:
With Windows Phone 7 you can only start the EmailComposeTask which does not have any way to include HTML based email. You will need to send this from a web service, which in all honesty is probably the better option anyway, as you’ll be able to log who sent what when, etc.
