Description	Hi, On vwgolfmk1.org.uk I have just noticed that the two welcome emails that we send out one hour and 24 hours after a member joins are not formatting and instead show the html markups. For example: <html dir="ltr"><head><title>Mk1 Golf Owners Club - Have you joined a region ?</title></head><body> <a href="The Mk1 Golf Owners Club"><img src="http://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/themes/default/images_custom/NewSiteBanner_2012_v2.jpg" alt="Mk1 Golf Owners Club"></a> Dear xxxxxxxxxx, Hi, Thanks very much for joining the Mk1 Golf Owners Club - We really hope that you will enjoy the time spent on this site. Are you in the UK or Ireland ? If so have you joined a Region yet ? Please visit the site here The Mk1 Golf Owners Club and use the selector in the top right hand corner to select a region. Then in the forum area you will now have access to pages for your region - some regions are very active - if yours is not, post up and ask why, the regional host will respond. Don't forget that we have an Annual Gathering once a year in July - This year is the 10th Anniversary of this great event !! Excellent to have you on board. We will hopefully see you on the forums, at a regional meeting or at one of the many shows that the Mk1 Owners Club attends every year. Cheers, The Mk1 Golf Owners Club Team. You're receiving this newsletter because you subscribed at some point. Not interested anymore? <a href="Members - The Mk1 Golf Owners Club">Unsubscribe</a>. </body></html> I can past this into a html file and open it and a browser renders in properly, so I think that there must be some wrapping around it that the email client cannot render. Appreciate if some one could take a look. Cheers Ade

It was not supporting HTML NEWSLETTER_DEFAULT_FCOMCODE templates (welcome mails use that too, but newsletters are supposed to allow it to be in either HTML or Comcode format). I have fixed that.

You may want to remove the salutation and footer from your welcome mails, given the template also includes this.

Oh. and if you want to test, I left some test code in your data_custom/execute_temp.php, just change the email from mine to yours, and it will send all welcome emails to you for you to preview.
