Answer

You cannot expect an answer without providing SOME sort of information. Just saying "it shows nothing" doesn't provide any information. Nobody knows what you are talking about.

Answer

I have been trying to understand what question you are actually asking, and I believe jpbro and chilkat have both expressed confusion about the nature of your query and the lack of useful information regarding what you are experiencing. You made only the most minimal attempt to answer our questions, and still have not provided LastErrorText or code samples. Despite that, I believe you to be quite earnest and extremely polite... So I definitely wish I could somehow be of more help...

I'm going to try a different approach here, I'm going to try and rephrase your question with the best interpretation I can. If I am correct, maybe we can go from there, and others can contribute more confidently (I genuinely believe that they don't because they don't get the question...). If not, perhaps you can explain to me what I am misunderstanding :)

It looks as though your application has created an eml to send to your recipients. In sending (using 8.0.4) to test accounts: one (a yahoo test account)- the other (a gmail test account), gmail was able to properly display your eml as it was designed, but yahoo did not. Upon upgrading to the recent release of the library the reverse happened: yahoo was able to properly display your eml as it was designed, but gmail did not.

Based on this question/assessment I will offer the following advice to further narrow down the issue (kinda pointless if I'm wrong, and therefor my apologies)

If you can save your email to an eml/mht file (this assumes it is not already so) and try the same procedure with a well established mail service such as outlook, we can determine whether the error lies in the eml or the chilkat component (or the usage thereof). Also, could you share the method used to create the eml? was it another chilkat component? And just to be sure that you are using the correct version, could you post the new LastErrorText showing the version #? (sometimes I try to update my chilkat activex dll's, but something goes wrong and I don't realize i'm still using an old copy until I examine the LastError...) If you are unwilling to show your code for valid reasons, perhaps you could describe your hypothesis in more detail, and I could write my own example to illustrate the solution?


Answer

sir "blaze4218", thanks a lot for your reply

but nope you don't get it.. yes may be due to my bad English

however i also think you dind't check that zip file yet..

that zip file has all files that my code used, (eml, mht and html)

my software/code don't create eml file it read (load eml file form disk) and send that eml file to recipient.

now eml and mht is showing correctly on yahoo (thought a little misplacement of text) but gmail don't show it correctly at all..

that zip file has also the sample screenshot..

i think you would get better idea if you could download that file..

once again thanks a lot for your kind help, i am so pleased by your response..

best regards
