css in mail

[Mark Stephens <ma...@yahoo.com>]

I'm trying to get a css include working in my mail template.  Images work just fine and show up in gmail but the css include doesn't seem to be working.  I even took the template and put it on my web server as a normal html file and that works great.  I know the include line below is correct.

Is there trick to using css in e-mail besides just using a link like this:

 <head>
        
    </head>

Watch for the Velocity comment marker, #, which in CSS has a different
meaning...

Hi,

Put the CSS directly in the HTML HEAD.

Also, even though you are seeing images in your gmail reader, chances
are many people will not see them unless you inline them. Search for:
java inline images email - or something like that.

best,
