Re: [WSG] Testing emails for Outlook 2007
Thanks again for your replies on this guys, just got back on my email. It might be worth investing 10 bucks in campaign monitor just to see what they recommend.

I was going to suggest the same - and they also have free templates that are already tested: http://www.campaignmonitor.com/resources/templates.aspx -- Chris Knowles *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

You could always open the page in word document and if everything looks fine there it will look fine in outlook 2007 since its using MS Word to render! M.

Problem with that is potential differences between Word HTML rendering 2003 - 2007. I haven't really looked into it but it would stand to reason there may be differences... they stupidly thought it good enough to be the sole renderer for the most widely used email client on the planet, so you'd at least hope it improved... It might be worth downloading the Word 2007 Viewer - it's a free download which allows you to View, print and copy Microsoft Word documents, even if you don't have Microsoft Word installed: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/CD102258581033.aspx Maybe somebody with access to Outlook 2007 can compare the two to see if they are comparable.

Re: [WSG] Testing emails for Outlook 2007
Thanks for your replies everyone. I was hoping Browsercam had gotten onto it or a site like that. I think the best thing to do is grab a version for XP, I didn't actually know I could add it to that.

Re: [WSG] Testing emails for Outlook 2007
Hey Paul, if you have a friend with it -- set up remote desktop connection and you'll be able to use outlook. I have outlook2007 on XP, you can send email to me and i will send back a printscreen.

I don't have Vista and can't see myself buying it just yet! Office 2007 runs fine on XP, with the new stupid Word rendering engine and all. And assuming you don't buy an OEM copy the license will be valid on Vista if you ever do upgrade (and if you DO buy an OEM copy and upgrade to Vista on the same hardware, it's still valid). If you're regularly testing for Outlook '07, probably a worthwhile investment over remote-hosted services. That said I've got no hard numbers on usage stats for it... we're testing for it, but it's possibly not significant just yet. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa338201.aspx is a useful resource.
