I suggest you try SMTP-X.  HTML mail is basically what one of its
features:

* You can get it from the web at www.emailinc.com/emailoverhp.htm,
download and install without talking to anyone or human intervention of
any kind.

* It's needs only a connection to a mail server (which you probably
already have) either via HOSTS.NET.SYS or DNS and does not require
anything else like a bunch of POSIX apps.

* No CUML required.

* It's a native mode COBOL/PASCAL IX NETIPC program that's proven out
for dependability, speed and all that stuff (no POSIX apps required -
just pure MPE).

* Best of all you can merge job output and contents directly into an
HTML template for reuse (or just send the HTML content) from any job or
command file or program.

* It's command line based and easy to install and use if you have 5
minutes.

And it cost practically nothing..

Good Luck!

It's anything you want it to be.

I was just kidding with Mark, inventing another Markup Language as an
Extended Sendup (XSL) of Mark's fascination with XML (Inventing markup
languages is not difficult; wait 10 minutes and someone else will have a
new
one for you to learn).

However, what I said was true: in this fictitious CUML language, the
<cu..>-thingies tags *are* "well-formed." They may not be well-formed by
XML,
PostScript or Swahili rules, but that's irrelevant to their use in the
case
of CUSoon. There, they work amazingly well.
