Default Rich-Text Email on Mobile ?

Hi All I have this situation every week where I have to send an email which is already stored in my Hotmail Inbox to someone FROM MY CELL.
But I can't find a way doing so, without removing all of the formatting in the email. It's like my cell phone edit the email and send it Plain-Text.

I need to find a way of using my cell phone, to simply command my inbox (it can be any email service provider, no preference at all) to send that email without editing it (or removing the Rich-Text format)

Anyone can help me on this tricky problem ?? I'd appreciate VERY MUCH
If you don't understand my question please let me know!

Its probably not your phone doing it. Probably the WAP server is doing it so your phone could display it. I think the only way around that might be to switch to a Smartphone or PDA.

Opera Mini might be able to do it, but I'm not sure. Most likely you need a phone with full HTML browsing capabilities, like Jay siad.

I have tryed to download opera mini on my LG VX8100 but this model is not working with current Opera mini software.

The only this possible would be to setup some website and upon my cell visiting it, it would automatically send the email I want. Would that be possible ?

Can someone help me doing it ? I guess there have some htlm code that would let me do that ?

In theory it is possible to set up a site that does it, but there are a few issues:
  1. It will require some server-side programming (HTML alone won't cut it).
  2. You will need to make it sufficiently secure so that it won't allow just anybody to do it.
  3. It will need to be able to read your email inbox (it won't necessarily be the same procedure for all email accounts).

I'm sure there's more — something I haven't thought of. All in all, it may not be worth it.

The LG VX8100? Isn't that a CDMA phone? I think Opera Mini only works on GSM phones for some reason.

Don't know if it's true for all CDMA phones, but VZW's use BREW instead of Java — Opera Mini is Java.

That may be the reason

I'd say the blackberry is the better bet. There's no guarantee that making opera mini work on a CDMA phone will even allow RTF emails.

Default Re: Rich-Text Email on Mobile ?

so you think there's a possibility to copy and paste html to make an email on a blackberry, instead of hand-making it in The Rich-Text available Frame ?

because Making frame and complex html figure that contain my email would be easyer by copying pasting that code in the email.

Thanks again !

I don't have a blackberry, so I couldn't say for sure, but it certainly has more functionality than a regular phone as far as email is concerned.
