    Thanks for the video tutorial. It’s very informative. I found a tool a couple of months ago that helps with coding HTML emails. Its called Email on Acid (http://www.emailonacid.com) and they show you exactly what HTML/CSS is not supported in each email client. Its a great tool and has saved me a ton of time designing clients emails. Anyway I hope this tool helps someone else as much it has helped me.

    I was expecting a little more detailed video but I guess this is only Part 1. I feel dirty when I design and code HTML E-mails, really dirty that I take a shower afterwards. :)

    Nice Video post though.
