Well yeah thats the point. Microsoft claims outlook mobile can compose in html, but that is not entirely true. It may just be a "misunderstood" explaination because when sending an email, it is encoded as html. Like I said in a few posts back, when adding a web address while composing, outlook mobile converts it into a clickable link. The default composer doesnt allow manual insertion of this html, but it is supported. So I guess technically outlook mobile can compose html, just that a user can't control it.
