Just wondering -- Is the HTML part of the E-mail identical for all recipients, or are you "personalizing" it by filling in certain elements (e.g. name of recipient, company name, etc.) ? If this is the case, you'll need to make sure to properly "escape" certain characters like angle brackets (aka "less than" and "greater than" symbols), ampersands, and a number of other characters. If you don't the resulting HTML file may not be properly formatted and you'll end up with parsing problems.
There are also some special consideration you'll need to make if the recipient is using an Asian language (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Korean) as there may be special consideration required to avoid some problems with double-byte encodings that you're apt to run into with Asian language. In particular, characters with ASCII value in the 128-255 range can be problematic (as often they have special meaning within double-byte character systems).
