That might be fine for webmail accounts where you are using a web
browser but what about desktop email clients?
(yes Outlook/Outlook Express use IE to render html.. but what about
others?.. can you be sure everyone's email client can even render
tables?.... maybe I might be seen as old fashioned in this regard...
but for email I prefer PLAIN TEXT - at least you can be sure
everything can read that!)
Quite right, though I think basic html 4 with a couple of inline styles
works on the whole.
I don't know if its come up yet on the list but things are going to get
worse for HTML email...

The crux of it is the rendering engine they are using for Outlook 2007
is MS Word...
