In ALL mail clients ;-)
Images included into the mail or fetched from your server?
Did you ever check Outlook Express on Mac or is IMac noch relevant? What
we found: the only design that works cross plattform, cross mail
programm: plain table design, no styles :-(. Check webmailer like web.de
oder yahoo or hotmail. How do they display?
When you want to address almost 100% of the people: forget the CSS stuff
in newsletters.
Regs. Peter.
P.S: There should be a setup option that disables the download of
external referenced images for security reasons. This images are used to
check if the email was read ;-) So if you think that your information is
important provide a perfect text version.
