How can I embed a Flash movie in an email?

[Kelly]

I need to deliver a brief Flash movie via email--so that it's visible when a
user views the email (as opposed to clicking a link or attachment). In what
format do I need my Flash file, and how do I compose the outgoing email?

Any help is greatly appreciated! I don't have Outlook or OE on this
computer (darn that Lotus Notes) so I'm limited with the playing around I can
do.

No one likes a surprise email message. I would suggest
sending your "flash movie" as an attachment. Many security
minded folks may have the "Block images and other external
content in HTML e-mail" security feature enabled to prevent
such spontaneous intrusions.

Carey, thanks for the prompt reply. I'm working on this for a client, who
wants to send this email to their employees to announce an upcoming event.
(It's not like I'm spamming unsuspecting victims!) My team suggested a link
or attachment to the client, but they're quite insistent on the employees
seeing the movie within the body of the email. Is there any way I can do
this--to keep the client happy? (Believe me, I'd love to just attach it...)

Thanks,
Kelly
