Enabling HTML Mail

Hi,

Well, I'm testing a fairly vamilla kickstart2 install working with Paypal Express checkout which is working fine.

I'm using the SMTP authentication module and a gmail account to send email and I've selected the SMTP Auth Mod. option to enable sending of HTML messages and the messages I contain are HTML format howver they are sent as plain text, so I get messages that look like this

<div class="message-wrapper">
<div class="header">
<div class="logo"><a href="http://ks.localhost:8082/"><img src="http://ks.localhost:8082/profiles/commerce_kickstart/themes/omega_kickst... alt="Commerce Kickstart" title="Commerce Kickstart" /></a></div> <div class="thank-you">Thanks for your order</div> </div> <div class="body"> <p class="detail">
Here are the details for your order <span class="order"><a href="http://ks.localhost:8082/user/1/orders/8">#8</a></span>, placed on Sat, 05/25/2013 - 21:55
</p>
:

How do I persuade KS to send the email asHTML format rather than plain text format?

1. So the SMTP Authentication Support module replace the Mime Mail in the Mail System.
and it doesn't know how to built right the HTML Emails.
I suggest to use PHPMailer module - https://drupal.org/project/phpmailer - instead.
This email won;t change the Mail system, it will just use the PHPMailer library for sending emails.
or try to have the SMTP working with your gmail on your environment.

2. I think something similar could happen for Mime Mail with "Plain text" selected as E-mail format (Mime Mail admin page - admin/config/system/mimemail)
