Hi,
We are discussing the approach that we will implement in order to support the output that is compatible with outlook, gmail and other clients. I will return with more details soon.

Hi Sergey
As you might know, this is the last and most important feature we need before converting from AR.Net.
You guys have soloved our other issues, which we are much grateful for and this (among other things) makes us eager to covert!
Have you been able to release a build with a working solution to this issue?

Well, let me try again. You can download build 1.6.1318.0 and test the inline styles feature of Html Rendering Extension. We have added the new setting that is called "CssStyleMode". Set it to "Inline" to get the output that uses the inline css styles.
Please, let us know whether the implementation works as expected.

Hello Sergey,
Thank you for working on this issue.
That implementation worked nicely for Thunderbird. Outlook 2007 however, can't handle absolute positioning. This is also true for Gmail, but that's not a priority for us.
Is there a way to get an output similar to Active Reports "Legacy"?

Meaning, just to be clear about this, that instead of writing DIV-layers, DD Report would write TABLE-tags.
Thanks ahead

Something about this week has brought a lot of requests wanting to know what the status of this feature is; rather than reply to everyone privately I'm going to post the status update here.
First some background, our previous attempts at solving this issue all revolved around taking the current HTML rendering extension and try to get it to output HTML that was acceptable to various email clients. This worked for in some cases, but not in various email clients we want to target. We tried this several times but it has become apparent that the right way to do this is to treat Email as a first class citizen.
To that end, we are creating a new rendering extension, the purpose of which will be to create output that is suitable for being emailed. That entails: MIME encoded images, using inline styles where appropriate, a table based layout, etc. At this time we are focusing our efforts on ensuring emails render well in Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, and Gmail. The team is wrapping up the rendering aspect and next we will focus on the API that will be used to generate the emails. My goal with the API is to make it as simple as possible for the developer to use, what I'd like to do is have the dev. pass in a new MailMessage and have the new rendering extension add the content.
James

My apologies for not replying in so long.
The Email export will not be part of the next release but the one after. The team is working on finishing up the export now and if you wish we can give you an early preview of it.

Is "the one after" the current release, meaning it should work in the major mail clients now? Thanks ahead

Hello,
We are working to implement this and we will definitely notify you when this feature gets implemented successfully.
As James said we will try to provide you an interim build before the final release to test with so that you can make sure it works for you.
Thanks,
Gaurav
