Heads up to those of you foolish enough to send HTML email. Outlook
2007 uses less components of IE and more components of Word for
rendering and editing emails, resulting in changing behavior.

"Asked about the controversial move, Chris Capossela, who manages the
Microsoft Office System family of products, admitted that "in Office
2007, by default, when you write or read an e-mail in Outlook, we are
using Word as the underlying engine for that.""

"The solution? Use Microsoft's Outlook 2007 HTML and CSS validator
tool, "to tell you which parts of your lean, mean HTML e-mails need to
be replaced with old-fashioned HTML sludge. "

We love standards. That's why there are so many.
