This one goes right to the feels. I've got pretty good experience with using SSR components to generate static html with components. I'm currently using dotnet and blazor where I can make email components like a button and an image as easy as that might sound.

No it's not. Its just hard if they need to work in Outlook, which uses a Word Processor instead of an HTML rendering engine like any other sane email client.

yeah it uses this really neat semantic rendering programming language for serving structured documents across servers

It's a bit tricky, but anyone with at least a Masters in CompSci should be able to parse some of it enough to get the gist. Bear in mind that the "source" is abbreviated to src, and "image" similarly. The rest is coding that gives the computer instructions, you'll also need to replace FILENAME in the code with the actual filename. It goes like this

<img src="FILENAME" /> 

Let me know if I can explain it more clearly.

hehe, FAX sounds like TCP ACK but waaay more rude.

My HR told me I could no longer email bills, but instead had to give them the original paper. I'm afraid somebody there will have a heart attack when I tell them that that PDF file is the original.

Fax? I ain't using that modern bullshit. I will be writing letters, just like in the good ol' days.

Did the fax go down from CrowdStrike? No. The superior communication medium!

because it works, even in a crowdstrike
