Outlook Mobile (Windows Phone mail app) rendering differences between different account types #9

Closed jamesmacwhite closed 10 years ago

jamesmacwhite commented 10 years ago

Windows Phone and the native mail app (Outlook Mobile) render email differently depending on the account type.

For POP3/IMAP/Gmail/Yahoo etc. These accounts seem to render with IE Mobile.

For Exchange/Office 365/Exchange ActiveSync accounts the rendering engine is not IE Mobile but something completely different. I have yet to determine what the rendering engine behind these accounts are but they differ quite a lot even though they are within the same mail app.

A detailed investigation and documentation exercise is currently being done to explain this inconsistency.
