Historically, any HTML generated by any MS program has been terrible,
what with proprietary attributes and tag sequences that violate nesting
rules (such as<p><ul>....</p></ul> when character formatting regions
should be entirely within a paragraph, e.g.<p><ul>....</ul></p>).
Snipping the HTML part out of one of his messages and running it through
HTML-tidy would be a worth-while exercise. So would fixing errors found
by HTML-tidy in situ in the HTML part of the message and running the
corrected message through SA to see how that affects the score.
Better would be to turn off HTML in OE, or use a better emailer :)
I am working on this little pointer with him.
It is almost better to build the html and have OE send it than to let OE
do its own HTML building.
