I made a laravel email client that displays emails as conversations, but the problem is how to restrict styles only for emails? Once I open an email with tags the whole email client's style changes. For example tags underlines and changes color. If I remove style or put !important to main css file then emails loose their original appearance.Any suggestions?
Personally I would use an iframe for rendering the email content. This way any styles/tags within the email content are restricted to the iframe only and the email is rendered as intended.

In my demo project, I used the email functionality for new register user into the system. For receive mail, used one kind of HTML page with all mail sent details of the respective user. For image added the path of the website like "http://abc.input.com/assets/image/welcome.png". Stored the same template body details in the database too. The path is recorded the same as the set path. But when I got the mail banner image not displaying and on inspect mail body image path showing one extra dot-like "http://abc..input.com/assets/image/welcome.png". That extra dot will create a problem to display image. Is it regarding any email agent-specific issue? Please share any suggestion. I have tried to provide a set of all related HTML tag but not working.
<img src="http://abc.input.com/assets/image/welcome.png" style="height: 175px; width: 560px;" alt="welcome">
I' do some minor changes in <img> source tag with renaming the image name with a small case and added the <anchor> tag with href attribute. Now the image is showing properly when I got the email from the client.
How to send html email with image background via PHPMailer?
I need standart html template with image backgrounds
It's not really up to PHPMailer, it's determined by the content you provide in the message body, but I'd suggest you stay away from image backgrounds anyway because Outlook does not support them.

php image display without download in mail
I have a PHP web application which create wishes card and send them with the PHP mail() function.
The wishes card is build with HTML and part of the card are illustrations, those illustrations use jpg images inside an IMG tag. The images are hosted on a server so images paths use a complete link (like http:/domain.com/img.jpg).
When the card is received, for exemple with thunderbird, it says images are blocked and the user has to click on a button to show the images.
I understand it's a security mesure.
That's still annoying for a whishes card which is meant to be discover with its illustrations.
So, i'm looking for any though, any light, in a way to prevent email clients from blocking images.
Thanks.
Image blocking is done on the receiver's end, by the mail client. There's nothing you can do about it.
It is because of this that you often see the
Can't see this email? View it here
(Or something similar) at the top of many emails. This is your best alternative.
Embed the image in the email, I strongly recommend something like phpMailer to do this.
From their documentation:
Inline Attachments
There is an additional way to add an attachment. If you want to make a
HTML e-mail with images incorporated into the desk, it's necessary to
attach the image and then link the tag to it.
For example, if you add an image as inline attachment with the CID
my-photo, you would access it within the HTML e-mail with <img
src="cid:my-photo" alt="my-photo" />.
In detail, here is the function to add an inline attachment:
$mail->AddEmbeddedImage(filename, cid, name); By using this function
with this example's value above, results in this code:
$mail->AddEmbeddedImage('my-photo.jpg', 'my-photo', 'my-photo.jpg ');
I'm trying to display an HTML email by inserting the entire html code from an email into a div on a webpage.
The problem is that the styles of the email are overriding the overall website styles. So if an email has a red background then my entire site's background color is red.
How do I lock the inner html of the div that has the email html.
You need to address this issue by re-writing or fixing your CSS, otherwise do something like load the HTML email as an iframe and the contents will be isolated from the rest of the page.
Its simply pollution, you mix one set of CSS with another, they mix, and cause problems.
I am using the joomla mail function. I have attached a background-image for the message body.
The image is displayed in all tools like: Gmail, Yahoo, Rediff etc.
But it does not show in Outlook 2007.
Seaching the internet, I did not get any information to let me know, wether the img tag is supported in Outlook
Background images are not supported in Outlook for any elements other than the body tag of an HTML email. The body of the email is not the same thing as it refers to the contents of the email and not the HTML body tag.
