I havent used Yam for years, back when I used my A4000. These days I read my mail online. But I have noticed that Yam had a stedy development over the years, by reading announcements in the amigaforums each time a new version was available.
I also seem to remember that html support was mentioned at some point. So I was pretty sure that internal html mail viewing was working when I now downloaded Yam 2.6 to try. But my html formatted emails still show as plain text here. EDIT: I just searched the yam.ch website, and it looks like this is in the to-do list, target is the next 2.7 version.
It seems the only way is to set it up to use OWB as an external viewer via MIME. But I I use the path to OWB with "%s" it will not find the file, because the URL will have http:// before the path name (sputnik does the same) OpenURL uses "%u" in its string, but using "%u" in this case doesnt seem to work.
Could anyone please give a hint about how to set this up. Also if there is a way to view html content with inlined images, I would like to know.
Another strange thing I found when trying to add a person to the adress book, and writing his birthdate gave me this error message: [Quote] Date of birth uses a wrong format. The correct format is '%e.%b.%Y'. %d - day %m - month %y - year (2 digits) %Y - year (4 digits) The year number must be greater or equal 1900!

Firstly, the numbers %e and %b in the format are different than the explaination below. The other thing is that I cant seem to make yam accept any date format. I even tried to give him birth date 01.01.01 or 01-01-01 and still get the message. 01.01.1971, 1971.01.01, 01-01-1971 or 1971-01-01will also make this message.
