<title>Enabling HTML format</title>

<p>You can change the format of an email message from plain text to HTML in the email composer by choosing <guiseq><gui>Format</gui><gui>HTML</gui></guiseq> from the menu bar.</p>
<p>Alternately, you also can change the first dropdown list below the <gui>Subject</gui> line from <gui>Plain Text</gui> to <gui>HTML</gui>.</p>
<p>If you choose HTML format, a second tool bar will be displayed below the <gui>Subject</gui> line with HTML-only options.</p>
<p>To send all your mail as HTML by default, enable <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Composer Preferences</gui><gui>Default Behavior</gui><gui>Format messages in HTML</gui></guiseq>.</p>
