OK I got my first mac (1 ghz iBook) since my Powermac 7300. One thing I can't seem to do is to send a web page embedded in an email. I don't want it to be an attachment with an icon but rather to have the HTML file render in the email itself. On my PC I would simply use the 'send to' command in Firefox and it would open my mail app (Outlook). The file would look like an attachment as it was being sent but it would be received inline.

Am I missing something or is there no way to send a web page as an email in either Safari or Firefox? This is very important to my wife who sends out newsletters for clients. Actually it's a showstopper in terms of switching. The solution doesn't have to be the same, just viable.

BTW I'm on 10.3.9 and mail 1.3.11 FWIW

I'm using Tiger (Safari 2.0.3) so you might not have this. Sounds like the upgrade would be worth it for you, if so.

In Safari -

File menu -> Mail Contents of This Page

Thanks. I was thinking of coughing up the $125 CAD for Tiger as I don't even have the original disks for this machine. That pretty much cemented it. I wonder why Firefox for OS X doesn't have this feature? It's not like it 'knows' what version of mail I'm using and disables that menu item.
