I have the problem where it constrain max-width (good!) but then it no longer scales down smaller than max-width on Outlook Office Home & Business 2016.
@philipp-klinz fyi I left your solution as an answer to this StackOverflow question: Is there an equivalent of CSS max-width that works in HTML emails?: answer
Hi everybody,
I have used @philipp-klinz 's solution. And I want the template to be max 600px width. But unfortunately, the templte is always 800px max. Can anyone please help me to solve this problem. Here I am giving the full code so that you can find if there is anything else that is causing the problem. Waiting for your reply. Thank you in advance.

Do you use conditional outlook comment code around every table or just inner tables whose width you need to control?
I needed a responsive (fluid) table that had a maximum width of 600px and this code is working for me:
<!--[if mso]>
<table><tr><td width="600">
<![endif]-->
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="max-width: 600px">
<tr>
<td>
<!-- Your content here -->
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!--[if mso]>
</td></tr></table>
<![endif]-->
Awesome
Thank you !!
I was making an email in Pardot (marketing tool) and the tool automatically changes the width attribute on my images to the width of the image. Pardot does not allow me to set a maximum width.
<!-- Outlook ignores the max-width -->
<img src="https://example.com/images/my-image.jpg" style="max-width: 200px" width="400">Since outlook does not care if you set a max-width in the style attribute the only solution is to change the width of the image back after it was uploaded to Pardot.
None of the examples above seemed to work for images (in Outlook) so the only solution for me was to recommend uploading images with the same width as the original image or to change the width back after uploading an image.
Dope. Thanks for this.
This saved me hours of the worst kind of debugging time, thank you!!
I'm still having trouble... I tried using this but maybe I'm using it in the wrong place? This is the original before I tried @philipp-klinz idea.

Thank you for THE Solution!
You're the real MVP 🤗
Isn't better use table and td?
love it, thanks @elidickinson
still works after 8 years
Great solutions everyone! Although none of them can stand the normal text mixed with super long words (or just text with no spaces). Windows Mail/Outlook (2007, 2010, 365) keep stretching the table...
NB: break-all and hyphens wouldn't help since the first will break normal words, and the later will brake the links.
@philipp-klinz Great job this works perfectly to center object without center text.
If someone want to center object and text, simply use style="text-align:center;.
