Table layouts in email lead to a number of rendering and accessibility issues, so the less we use them the better. Outlook for Windows is the only reason we even need to use tables anymore and it's now at just around five percent of email clients used.
So here’s an approach to not having to use tables for structure that's worth considering: use divs for structure only, and don’t do anything for Outlook, letting multi-column div layouts turn into single-column layouts in Outlook. Essentially making the Outlook version look similar to what you might do for a mobile version of a design.
