Join the cause for standards in html email
I’ve suffered plenty of headaches trying to create standards-compliant emails, and have given up in favour of bloated, cumbersome, outdated html (ie the stuff of nightmares where the design of each paragraph is dependent on its own font tags).
Thus I urge all those who also suffer these headaches to get involved (or at least keep up to speed) with the good work underway at campaignmonitor.com (see their post ‘Help us form a baseline for standards support‘).
