Forget trying to copy and paste, it wont work. Just save the word file and in the email add it as an attachment.
Regarding using a 'professional' email address, it is much better for your image. Many people think it cost a lot of money. Would you be surprised if I told you it could be less than a tenner for 2 years? The problem you'll have is that most scams use hotmail or gmail addresses, people may group you with these, or just think you're playing at it. If you're not serious about your business, why should anyone else be?

I have made up an email that I would like to send but it's on word and my email is a hotmail account. I have the word document exactly as I would like it, the trouble is cannot copy it on to my email in the same format. I have tried saving it as html, rt..something rather but it will still not read as the word document does, there are extra line spaces and all sorts...it looks awful I couldn't send it.
It's an advertising email for more work so it has to look half decent. I realise using hotmail is not ideal but as I don't have a website yet I don't have a professional email address. I am not interested in paying for a professional email address at the moment either.
Can anyone tell me if is possible to send the email in the exact format as the word document.
Also, just to add to Kris' excellent point about gmail / hotmail, etc.
Remember when you signed up with your Internet service provider in the small print it said theat it came with x number of email accounts?
Most people don't realise that they have more than one and only ever seem to set up the one and forget about the others.
You can set up email accounts for your business and set up Windows live mail to receive all of the different email addresses into seperate buckets keeping your busienss and private stuff totally seperate.

A good point, shaun, I believe gmail offer the same service. If you only use one computer though something like thunderbird is much better than the online offerings.
