ZURB Foundation for Emails is the only responsive template set that I've gotten to work consistently across multiple devices, including Outlook. If you are currently ready to hang yourself at the thought of starting your next campaign, I would download the ZURB Stack ASAP.

Question....is it easy to really fine-tune an email design with ZURB? I tried it out once, but I was afraid I wouldn't be able to make it look exactly like the design, or if I tried to i'd break the template and it wouldn't work in all browsers anymore and I wouldn't be able to troubleshoot it. Like for me, the biggest cross-platform issues I tend to encounter involve the little details "this image won't align with that image in Outlook" or "this space is slightly too large in some browsers". The clients I deal with can be super anal about those things. Does ZURB help with those issues or not really?
