Direct Magazine ran a recent article by Ken Magill titled "It Could Get Ugly". He references comments made by Epsilon Interactive Vice President Michael Della Penna about all-image e-mails being suppressed by large e-mail service providers like Google, AOL or Microsoft.

E-mail is one part of a total online strategy that includes online marketing, search, catalogs, direct mail, affiliates, you-name-it!
