[Outlook 2007] Image resize limited to 66 ratio in HTML

Hello,

it seems Outlook 2007 has a weird behavior rendering images in the
following circumstances:
Having a one-black-pixel gif, we've used it to render borders, as
Outlook 2007 doesn't render backgrounds.
So we had that kind of code: <img src="http://blabla.com/img/pix.gif"
width="140" height="1"/>
or <img src="http://blabla.com/img/pix.gif" width="1" height="100"/>

For no reason, Outlook rendered each image width or height greater
than 66 to 66, breaking the whole page rendering.

The solution was to change the one-black-pixel gif to a 20-pix-squared
gif, without changing the code.

Another weird thing : The same HTML with same one-black-pixel rendered
66-pix squares under Lotus Notes.

(No, I'm not drunk !)

Does anyone know where this "66" limitation comes from?

An answer to WHAT?
I don't know what forum you are using but please be aware that whatever it
is, it leaches off the Microsoft public news server in order to make it
appear far busier than it is.
The majority who are NOT using this "forum" cannot see the post to which you
refer, so we haven't a clue as to what you are talking about.
