On Friday’s Service In Action call we had our friends from Goodmail discuss their revolutionary product allowing rich media (video/ audio) to be directly inserted into email messages – traditionally, most email clients block or remove JavaScript and Adobe Flash from the messages for security reasons, limiting the inclusion directly in the message. Alternatives/ work-arounds included image links to video hosted outside the message or animated gifs.
