First, let's clarify E-mail. These days, email comes in two varieties. *REAL* email, and then webmail.
To use REAL email, you must have an email client installed on your computer, like Thunderbird, Outlook, Outlook Express, etc. These clients for real email have one advantage, among many others, of being capable of displaying HTML code natively.
Webmail, on the other hand, is a sorry substitute for the real thing, and only requires a web browser to connect and get your mail. MOST of the major providers of webmail prohibit the display of HTML code, first of all because of how lame and insecure Windows is, and because if HTML displays by default in the webmail, code nasties are propagated far too easily.
Therefore, if you include code on your email for webcalling, it might or MIGHT NOT display in the recipient's mail. If you KNOW FOR CERTAIN that your recipient uses real email, then no problem. If they use a webmail client, then odds are that they don't see what you think you sent. Webmail callback was really designed for WebPage use, but can be and is sometimes usable for email usage, subject to the above conditions.
