Outlook 07 Preview and Code Analysis Update |
|
11.22.2009 We are excited to announce that we have recently made some drastic improvements to our Outlook 07 preview. We are hoping that this will give developers a better understanding of how to design and construct HTML and CSS emails that comply with Outlook's often frustrating MS Word engine.

Email Renderability
Market research has led us to the conclusion that most emails are NOT getting tested for renderability - after all, is that even a word?
When we initially started developing our Email Test, our primary goal was to make life easier for the email designers and developers of the world - those who are hired to produce a professional template or layout for their clients. After all, it seems as though making sure the email “looks good” is a responsibility which falls entirely on them and most often their customers assume it’s an easy enough task to accomplish.
The fact is, aside from memorizing the web standards chart provided by Campaign Monitor, having 15 email accounts, installing 11 different desktop clients, and managing several virtual machines - ensuring renderability is much easier said than done. We won’t even touch the subject of mobile devices and service plans. So how come it’s so rarely talked about? And how many corporate advertisers are being tasked with ensuring the quality of their campaigns? After all, isn’t it the corporate identity that’s at stake here?
