title: How do I format an email for Gmail?
body: <p>I'm sending out an email using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codeigniter#CodeIgniter" rel="nofollow noreferrer">CodeIgniter</a>'s built in library.  All I'm trying to do is send a bolded string, but instead of rendering the tags, it is printing them.  What I have:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;
   &lt;head&gt;
   &lt;/head&gt;
   &lt;body&gt;
   &lt;b&gt;Donkey&lt;/b&gt;
   &lt;/body&gt;
   &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>That is, character for character, the email I'm getting.  Why aren't the tags rendering?</p>
