Re: Encoded HTML within <description> or <content>

Actually, in your reply, my example was decoded once
when it shouldn't have been. I'll repeat my example
here with spaces added so it can't be decoded.

The following is in the DESCRIPTION element:

 & l t ; b & g t ; B i g   B o l d e d   T e x t & l t
; / b & g t ;    f o l l o w e d   b y   n o n - b o l
d e d   t e x t

Is this still valid in a DESCRIPTION element (or
anywhere else for that matter)?

It's really difficult to write about HTML markup in
HTML email clients. *shrug*
