How do I send animated gif in mail?

[Biff]

Hi all

I want to send a animated giff through the mail, that would play once the mail is opened, How do I do that? I got the animation at my website.

Thanks in advance - Biff

I don't think you can unless you have compatible systems (lotus notes has some of this). Additionally, the animated gif functionality exists in browsers, I doubt an email client would support this.

You can send the gif as an attachment or just send the url of the gif. They at least can click and see it on the site.

Outlook Express, enable HTML, set cursor in message body, Insert, Picture, browse to ani-gif and insert it. To add sound - Format, Background, sound, choose the sound.

ps: the pic or sound should be on your hard drive
