Author Sending Flash in HTML Newsletters

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is a way to embed Flash in an HTML newsletter I want to blast? I have absolute links to the flash file but it doesn't seem to show up in the email. Many thanks.

My site has a link to the most popular software for producing and emailing a
newsletter. Please go to http://www.webgreenit.com at the bottom right you
will see a link to try this out for sixty days free if you register through
my link. It also allows for HTML or flash formatted email if you know what
you are doing. Please register through my site if you do decide to
use it.

I already have a blasting engine and I have been sending plain HTML pages
(using absolute links) to our clients through it without a problem. I just
wanted to incorporate a small Flash header. JFK, thanks for the link but I
really can't use another site to send this as it is confidential information.

If it's confidential, it probably shouldn't be going through email in the
first place. FYI, no matter how you send your email, it's already going to
be sent through many, many 3rd party servers.

It is going through a secure party, I just meant that I can't start using
"trial" memberships and other new blast engines for this data. We already pay
money for the one we have. I realize the net is not "safe" but the data is
blasts are private even though they get routed through various locations.

They're only private if they're using something like PGP (which just makes
them encrypted). Otherwise, pretty much anyone can intercept them if they
want to, and there's no telling if copies of them are left on the various
servers they pass through to their final destination.

This might be an issue, or it may not be...it just depends on how secure you
really need the information you are sending.

If it must truly be secure, I'd suggest sending a link to a secure web page
that a person could log into.

I'd go with PGP over something from a company associated with the evil
NetSol!
