More than 64 columns in HTML table

A co-worker just sent me a note - he received an email that he can’t open - he receives a pop-up indicating ‘More than 64 columns in HTML table’.

Is it just me, or does it seem that in 2010, 64 columns might be an unreasonable limitation to the Notes Client? Apparently Outlook can open it, and even back in R6 it’s reported that the Domino server could open the table in Webmail.

(He hasn’t tried it in 8.5.1 yet, but I assume it will work).

Thanks!
