I have a client who wants a newsletter sent out that mimics the web
site. IMHO this is generally unrealistic. Too many variables -
browsers, email readers, monitors/resolution including widescreen, local
desktop configurations, age of developer, etc.
The one that I was working on yesterday and eventually got it right to
display in Thunderbird and Outlook, on his PC Outllook looks awful. And
of course my webmail program is a wreck. It will display some really
simple html perhaps will borders/colors defined in CSS, but won't even
take a shot at this. I have not checked @gmail yet.
If what I'm saying is reasonably accurate, how do you convey this
message, politically correct?
