Default E-Mail Marketing and Outlook 2007 (Will you be ready?) - 01-24-2007, 10:50 PM

Here's a blurb from Amazon concerning Microsoft Outlook 2007...

Outlook 2007 E-mail Postmark
The Outlook 2007 E-mail Postmark helps ensure that e-mail reaching your inbox is legitimate and that e-mail you send will be trusted by the recipient's client. Creating mail with E-mail Postmark uses new technology that Microsoft has developed as part of the ongoing effort to curb junk mail. This technology asks the sender's computer to perform a computation or puzzle, and then assigns this work as a token of legitimacy to the e-mail message. These e-mail postmarks are designed to make it very time-consuming and technologically detrimental for users to send mass e-mail like spam, yet they do not change the user experience of sending e-mail.



I could be totally off here but I believe this will affect people like you and me with large lists. I think it's going to be a good thing.

As long as you have an Indian person doing all the one-time postmarks, you're good

Thanks Ricky, that's interesting news and something I hadn't heard before.

What concerns me though is the way MS is handling HTML content in Outlook2007 - setpping back in time and using Word to render html instead of IE as they presently do.

That's all the more reason for those that send html emails to keep them as simple as possible and also be sure to offer a text only version.
