The solution given for Outlook doesn't work for me... :(
Am I allowed to say f'ing awesome! Thanks so much!
Thank you! Very helpful.

I'm a little new to editing html emails. So, I take your template, put everything I need where it says [PUT EMAIL CONTENT HERE] including all the CSS I need as inline CSS?
I had no idea @tinabeans made this. This file has been in my projects for almost a year.
Original post explaining the code is gone. You can find it on the wayback machine.

Did you see issues when testing with Litmus for Windows Phone 7.5? In my tests, even of just the base template, the conditional comments are visible. https://litmus.com/pub/99ffa14/screenshots
I only have a Windows Phone 7.8 device that I test with, and on that I can't see the comments, so I'm not sure if this is a real bug or a Litmus bug. Anyone have any ideas?
