WYSIWYG HTML Editing

Before we start, we must admit that there is a better email designer out there, and it's free:  BeeFree.  The HTML code that it generates is fully compatible with Gammadyne Mailer.  In fact, most of the email templates available on the Internet are compatible with Gammadyne Mailer.

Gammadyne Mailer allows you to edit the HTML Body in a WYSIWYG editor (What You See Is What You Get).  You can create an attractive email, complete with formatted text and graphical images, without having to know HTML.  Below is a screenshot of the HTML editor:

  • Background/foreground color
  • Indent/unindent
  • Left/right/center justify
  • Create hyperlink
  • Insert/delete table/row/column
  • Insert image
  • Bulleted/numbered list
  • Unicode character browse & insert
  • Edit HTML attributes
  • Edit HTML style
  • Insert horizontal rule
  • Insert opt-out link
  • Check HTML/CSS for errors
  • Reformat raw HTML code
  • Compress HTML code

Notes

  • Gammadyne Mailer can also use an external HTML file created by another HTML editor.  Feel free to use a third-party template.
  • When sending email, Gammadyne Mailer can automatically parse the HTML Body for images and make them compatible with email.  Simply check the "Automatically Parse Images" box on the HTML Body/Options branch.
  • Many email clients do not support style sheets.  However, if you simply check the "Make Styles Inline" box on the HTML Body/Options branch, Gammadyne Mailer will automatically convert your style sheets to inline styles.  This ensures that all recipients will see the email exactly how you intended.
  • Two customizable, mobile-compatible templates are provided.  Choose "Template Designer" from the Tools menu.
  • Unsafe characters are automatically removed from image filenames.
