16. Mobile email best practices
1. Many mobile email readers are triaging their inbox,
deciding whether they want to read your email now,
later, or never.
2. Use a clear email subject line and recognizable
name in the sender field to ensure you don't get
deleted.
3. Then do your best to create a pleasant mobile
reading experience by offering both plan text and
HTML versions of your email,
4. Use very descriptive alt text in case your images
don't display
