I'm happy it blocks that crap too. In fact most of the people out there block it, last stat I saw was something like 2/3 of of email users block images and other multimedia by default.
But it doesn't matter.

As of Outlook 2007, it uses Word to render the HTML, so it's actually closer to IE5.5 
There used to be a site[^] campaigning for Microsoft to fix this, but it seems to be dead now. The Twitter account[^] hasn't posted since 2009.

You should introduce them to wonderful technology called plain text emails. They look greater on any client/system/device.

That's one of the reasons that services like MailChimp prosper.

Haven't you ever wondered why commercial e-mails are nothing but graphics?
Format your text, take a snapshot, and stick it in. Job done, for 90% of the content.
For the rest, use plain text, as much as possible.

Coming into the office after lunch, saw window washers half-way up the high rise next door.
If it rains today (good chance), is that a washout for them?

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("hu");
string mechanism = "HMACSHA256";
var v1 = mechanism.StartsWith("HMAC");
mechanism = "HMAC-SHA256";
var v2 = mechanism.StartsWith("HMAC");
Result : v1 is false, but v2 is true.
I was too lazy for using StringComparison.Ordinal, since, in my code all the strings were hardcoded... No way, ever, a bug would happen... Until an hungarian used it.
Apparently, if you are hungarian, "CS" is counted as 1 letter, BUT in unicode this is 2 letters...

Yes, Hungarian has a few letters that are 2 characters long and one that is 3. So depending on culture settings this can get taken into account (same for SQL Server etc.). Unfortunately, as with other culture or datetime related problems there are weird corner cases. For example the word "pácsó" (meaning curing salt) consists of two parts, "pác" and "só", so even though c and s are next to each other they are two different letters and pronounced as such. Needless to say the computer has no way of knowing this, so StartsWith("pác") returns false for "hu" culture setting, which strictly speaking is incorrect. Cultures are hard...
