Email Newsletter Formatting

Almost everyone has expressed interest in sending HTML formatted email newsletters.  Almost everyone is skittish about how such emails will look in various email clients-- for good reason.  At past Lab Hours sessions I've alluded to an online guide to CSS compatibility within various email clients, both desktop and online.  The good news is I'm finally posting this guide.  The better news is that it has been updated recently (June 11, 2008).  The not so good news is that there is little change from a year ago in terms of what is compatible and what is not. 

Here is the link:  http://www.campaignmonitor.com/css/

Look for a tip later about how this information can be utilized to enable sending widely compatible HTML newsletters from within Drupal generated from existing content on your Drupal site.  If you have experiences, bad or good, related to formatted email newsletters, chime in by commenting on this tip.
