Put a good word in for Marketo at your company. They are the ones who paid for me to focus on this task. :) @Melanie: Thank you so much. Put a good word in for Marketo at your company.

By offering these templates so freely you've almost erased my irritation with repeat customer requests for fancy HTML emails rather than compelling text-only ones.

I wouldn't expect to see 8 there any time soon, eg. within three years. In those companies were Notes is widespread, 6 is still rather dominant.

Does everyone upgrade regularly? Is 8 dominant? What is the renderer in 8? There should be online documentation, but I can't find any.

I work for Ogilvy Interactive. As IBM, who own Lotus are an international client of ours, the unwritten client loyalty contract dictates that we use Notes across the board in all Ogilvy agencies. The rendering engine in versions less than 8 makes zero sense. Did you know that scrollbars used to be optional in Notes? Even when the content demanded them. So if you hadn't turned on the scrollbars in your preferences, the part of your mail that required scrolling was not available. Utter lunacy. Lotus Notes v6 is indeed utter hell to build for.

Two I know about are the german army (Bundeswehr) and Bayer (third largest pharmaceutical company) have thousands of workstations with Notes in use. Thanks for the pointer at Campaign Preview, that looks very handy. Lotus Notes is still in heavy use in corporations.
