Forwarding HTML mail

[pelicanmike]

I'm preparing an HTML mailout for a company, I want a link at the bottom of the mailout to say 'click here to send this email to a friend', which will effectively forward the mail onto a friend. I was wondering the best way to do this?

I thought about redirecting the user to a page on the website, where they simply fill in an email form and click 'send'.. And then using a PHP script to send the mail. But is it possible to send HTML emails using a PHP script? Is it easy?

Or is there somewhere i can do it simpler?

Thanks for any advice you can give,

Mike
