In reference to Litmus, the table below shows which email clients support, somewhat support, or don't support forms:

Email ClientForms supported?Notes
Apple MailYes“GET” works as expected. “POST” opens up a landing page with a form instead of submitting from the email
iPhone Mail AppSomewhat“GET” works as expected. “POST” does not submit.
Gmail Desktop WebmailYesSubmits with a popup alert.
Gmail (iOS)SomewhatDoes not submit in iOS GANGA. “POST” input is also disabled.
Gmail AndroidSomewhatOnly “GET” works, but opens up a landing page with a form instead of submitting from the email. With “POST”, the form visually appears, but does not allow user input.
Gmail Mobile WebmailYes
Outlook on WindowsNo
Windows 10 MailNo
Outlook MacOSNoThe form visually appears and allows user input on Microsoft email addresses, but does not allow submission.
Outlook.comNoSubmits only when an email is opened in its own window, rather than submitting from inbox view. Upon submission, input attributes are prefixed with “x_” so it can cause issues with collecting data. Would recommend hiding for this client.
Outlook iOSYes
Outlook AndroidSomewhatThe form shows visually, but the keyboard doesn’t appear to allow users to input information so users would have to copy and paste text to input. Would recommend hiding for this client when a keyboard input is used but allow forms if using other inputs.
Yahoo! Desktop WebmailYesSubmits with a popup alert.
Yahoo! iOSNoThe form visually appears and allows user input, but does not allow submission.
Yahoo! AndroidSomewhatThe form shows visually, but the keyboard doesn’t appear to allow users to input.
AOL Desktop WebmailYes
AOL iOSNoThe form visually appears and allows user input, but does not allow submission.
AOL AndroidYes
Samsung Mail AppSomewhatThe form shows visually, but the keyboard doesn’t appear to allow users to input information. Would recommend hiding for this client when a keyboard input is used but allow forms if using other inputs.
