[NFBCS] Best Accessible Email Newsletter

[Jack Heim]

It probably depends on your audience. Guide Dogs for the Blind does 
their newsletter in plain text. If there is a URL, they just put it in 
there in plain text. Thats not as inconvenient as it sounds because if 
you read your mail on a PC, you can pretty easily cut & paste the URL 
into a browser. If you read your email on an iPhone, it recognizes it as 
a link and allows you to tap on it anyway.  I am guessing Android does 
that as well.


The New York Times takes the opposite approach. Its newsletter is an 
HTML document with embedded pictures and links. You must have your email 
program set to display HTML to make sense of it.
