I am creating email client application in windows forms. For sending mail, 
i am using Yarte control. When i am sending email, I am able to send the email but in my gmail inbox i am getting Output of mail is RAW HTML.

For example- i am getting output like this.
<pre>
!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META content="text/html; charset=unicode" http-equiv=Content-Type>
<META name=GENERATOR content="MSHTML 8.00.7601.17514"></HEAD>
<BODY>
<DIV dir=ltr>
<DIV>Hello <BR></DIV>

In above HTML, my output is only "Hello" but its adding some extra raw html.
