Hello,
Can someone tell me how I would make a email look professional?
I'm using php and I'm needing to make my own processors.
So if anyone can tell me how I would make a processor that would use a mail template or something, To make the email look professional.
Thanks in Advance.

Try including something like this in your code...

In the mailbody variable, you have the full freedom of HTML with CSS....

PHP Code:

<?
$subject1 = "Here is an E-Mail"; // The subject of the recipients e-mail.

$email1 = "you@you.com"; // Your e-mail, the from address.

$mailbody = "<STYLE type='text/css'><!-- 
body { 
font-family:'Times New Roman', Serif; 
font-size:12px; 
font-weight:normal;
font-style:normal; 
text-align:left; 
color:black; 
background:none; }  
.fastReq    { 
font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; 
font-size:12px; 
font-weight:bold; 
font-style:normal; 
color:#4A207E; 
background:none; } 
.fastReg {    
font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; 
font-size:12px;    
font-weight:normal; 
font-style:normal; 
color:#4A207E; 
background:none; }  --></STYLE>
    <table width=640>
      <tr>
        <td align='center'><hr width=95%>Online Application Received<hr width=95%><br></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>

      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td> <!-- Begin Form Results Table -->
      <table width=640 cellpadding=3 cellspacing=2 style='border:1px #4A207E solid; margin-bottom:5px; margin-top:2px;'>
