PUBLIC MARKS with tags emailing & css

Ces derniers mois, j'ai eu la chance de travailler à plusieurs reprises sur l'intégration d'e-mails responsive. C'est un sujet particulièrement intéressant qui rapproche des technologies préhistoriques (mise en page en tableaux, support CSS archaïque) avec des concepts modernes (du responsive design). C'est un peu comme si un scientifique fou décidait de resusciter des dinosaures.

Microsoft has confirmed they plan on using the Word rendering engine to display HTML emails in Outlook 2010. This means for the next 5 years your email designs will need tables for layout, have no support for CSS like float and position, no background images and lots more. Want proof? Here’s the same email in Outlook 2000 & 2010.

Designing an HTML email that renders consistently across the major email clients can be very time consuming. Support for even simple CSS varies considerably between clients, and even different versions of the same client. We've put together this CSS support in email clients guide to save you the time and trouble of figuring it out for yourself. With 21 different sets of results, all the major email systems are covered, both desktop applications and webmail.

Devriez-vous utiliser les CSS ou (comble de l'horreur) les tableaux ? Et que faire quand les images sont désactivées ?
