This hack is the closet thing to what I was looking for to send out HTML Newsletters from my board.

All I really wanted to do to send HTML newsletters from my board was to prepare the newsletter in my html editor, and paste it into the message box to send to users.

Before the commbull hack, I was unable to do this.

For anyone else who might want to use this hack in this way, here is what you can do. Firstly, I do not give my users the option to take either html or text. They all get html.

I generate the mailing with commbull, but I delete the entire message after hitting preview. I then paste my HTML newsletter in the box and hit send.

I've done some tests, and it works fine so far. It even shows up in Yahoo and Hotmail web based email.
