Hey John, I found out about that same issue as well. However when I upgraded to 
Office 2010 on my PC, outlook displays a bar stating that to correctly view 
this email I should click on it so it can open it up in the browser.  Then it 
looks like it should. Im pretty sure the email isn't pulling the CSS correctly 
from the web server or something like that.

The email is the same regardless of what mail client you're using. We inline everything (CSS and images) for you, otherwise you might have to teach your mail client how to authenticate against your RT server and that would be a pain in the neck.

The real problem is that Outlook's rendering engine can't handle the complicated HTML and CSS that we use for search results. This is why it gives you a link to view the page in a browser.

Sure thing, Thomas,

Here's a screenshot:

finally concluded that the most likely issue is that she is using Outlook (I am 
using Mac Mail).

Jon,

It'd be really useful to see a screenshot here as an example of what's
actually going wrong.  Your conclusion is likely correct, but it'd be
good to see the problem to confirm.

Thomas

I know Outlook is horrible with html e-mail support, but I'm a bit
surprised that this occurred and that I can't find anything in the
archives referencing it.  Is there either;

a) A patch that modifies the outgoing e-mail to work with the limited
Outlook html support or,
b) A way to send the dashboard e-mails as plain text instead of html?

Thanks!
