What's your favorite provider in terms of customizability?

I use MailChimp. You can custom code your emails, but they still add their own table wrappers. My biggest issue with that is they don't add role="presentation" to those tables. I've added it to the tables in my custom coded content, but I can't get around that.

Also, do you have any tools you use to assist you with the table stuff?

It's been a while since I've used them, but MailChimp was also my go-to. They are user-friendly, good documentation/resources and the free-plan is great if you are a small-biz or are looking to give email development a try.

Hmm, right now I'm not using any tools to assist with building tables. I'll admit that I'm a little slow to adopt frameworks for email. At work, we built our template system internally and stuck with that since.

Are you using any cools currently? Or are you looking to try something new?
