Indy: smtp, content-types and Rich text..

Hi!
I need to use the indy component to send a rich text message,
does anybody know what content-type to use?

Is there anything else I should think of beore I send the rtf-mail?

I do not want the rtf text to be a file attatchment, but rather the actual
body.

Any tips/hints are more than welcome.

regards
/Andreas

I believe the recipients e-mail client must be able to read rtf e-mail and
as far as I am aware Outlook express ( which is the most common ) only reads
text or HTML.

Sending the message as HTML is easy and straight forward enough with INDY
