The Power of Word in Outlook
Microsoft’s response to the Fix Outlook Campaign:
There is no widely-recognized consensus in the industry about what subset of HTML is appropriate for use in e-mail for interoperability.
Uh, what about, you know, the same HTML standards used in browsers and just about every other email client? And if you don’t want to do that, can you really argue that simple things like background images should be left out of a popular email program? It really boggles my mind how much Microsoft just doesn’t get it–instead of listening to developers’ gripes about creating HTML emails for Outlook, they spend most of blog post talking about how you can integrate charts into your email. Just because you want to write emails with Word’s engine doesn’t mean you have to completely ignore HTML standards.
