Hello, all

Outlook supports messages in HTML.  Is it possible to send
an HTML with a drop-down list (<select>) in the body so that
the receiver could select a value and send it back?

When I tried to send the following simple list:

  <select>
     <option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
     <option value="saab">Saab</option>
     <option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
     <option value="audi">Audi</option>
  </select>

it arrived as fixed text "[Volvo]" without the ability to
choose another value.

Or is there a better way to embed fillable fields into an
e-mail me
