Here is the other page I mentioned: http://www.campaignmonitor.com/blog/post/3442/mobile-email-design-in-practice/ We use this method for *some* of our emails. Our own and for clients interested in responsive benefits (which, frankly, they all should be). You may not be looking for responsive emails - though it's a pretty good idea - however they talk alot about what clients will do with CSS in the head and inline. That said, I agree that inline styles are the safest way to go. We generally do all text styling with inline styles and have since dropped old school <font> tags and the like. Watch out for spacing methods. Margin and padding have flaky support. Here are some other good resources: http://www.email-standards.org/ http://www.campaignmonitor.com/css/ Hope this helps! -- Tom Livingston | Senior Front-End Developer | Media Logic | ph: 518.456.3015x231 | fx: 518.456.4279 | mlinc.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
