Ditto.  If you  need Fancy, supply it with links to a web-based newsletter
that has all the bells and whistles you might desire.  Anything email should
be as simple and fast as possible.

===============================
But I would
suggest if it's something you plan to email around the office, then maybe do
it as a nice Word newsletter and then just email the doc to everyone.
===============================

Let me chime in with a pet peeve.

The parent company of my last company had a communications department that
would send out communications. They would email Word and PowerPoint
documents for EVERYTHING.

A 100 word notice was NOT sent in plain text. It was sent in "fancy". Drove
me nuts.

I like a well crafted printed piece as much as the next guy.

But, for me, if you want me to read it online, format it for online (one
column, top to bottom). If you want me to read it printed, format it for
printing.

And whichever format you use, do NOT report on the company party and end the
story with "a good time was had by all".
