Take note

  • Apple Mail preview continues to work as before.

Available email clients

Compatibility Preview currently includes clients across several categories, including Gmail, Yahoo Mail, Apple Mail, iPad, iPhone, Outlook.com, Outlook 2013, and Outlook 2016, among others. The exact list visible in the tool reflects the clients supported by the preview rendering service at any given time.

Changes to Outlook support

Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2010 previews are no longer available in Compatibility Preview. These versions were removed because they are no longer supported by the rendering service that powers this feature. The Outlook previews now available are:

  • Outlook.com
  • Outlook 2013
  • Outlook 2016

If a client preview is unavailable

If a client you need is not shown in Compatibility Preview, send a test email to a real inbox for that client. This lets you verify rendering directly in the email application.

  1. Open your campaign in the email designer.
  2. Send a test email to an address you can access in the client you want to check.
  3. Open the test email in that client to review how it renders.
