You are right but he is the boss and probably doesn't have a real clue about how many people are not going to see his emails as he expects. Though what is really funny is that newsletters that are in html almost always look worse on my Mac than they do on my pc. Granted I have Entourage and Outlook set to plain text but Apple message degrade in a way that makes them unreadable in Entourage some sort of hybrid result with a dark blue background.
I suspect your boss is one of those who doesn't quite get the variety of equipment and the way people work so it maybe a case of making it look good on his system and then letting complaints roll in.

I'm using 12all.. to mass send some mails out.. my most resent client does not want to send the newsletter out, unless it's pixel perfect to hs designs... He's on a MAC, and we're in the UK, FYI.. I'm explined that different clients and differnt browsers will display the email slightly differently, but not alot of difference.. He just sent a list asking for this image to go up by 2 pixels, and that one left by 3 pixels etc... Am I b eing lazy, or am I right to tell him he's beingtoo anal for an emial that most people won't study in the way he is? Thoughts, before I go back to him...???
