Visual Template Designer email support

Many combinations of devices and operating systems may have differing results. The following email clients and browsers have been identified as the most commonly used clients and have been tested for responsive or mobile friendly elements.

Desktop   Mobile Web mail
Thunderbird 52+ Gmail app on Android 5.1+ Gmail
Apple Mail 9+ Gmail app for iOS Outlook.com
Outlook 2007+ Mail app on iOS 8+ Microsoft Office 365
  iOS 11 Windows 10 Mail
    AOL
    Yahoo!

Note: Versions of Outlook from Outlook 2007 to present use Microsoft Word to render HTML email. This can cause problems with email rendering. Try to determine the version of Outlook most used by your email subscribers and design and test for that version.

Note: Not all fonts will render in a mobile client. The more common web-safe fonts are at the top of the font drop-down list.
