Hi There,

Does anyone else struggle with getting their email HTML templates looking like they do in preview mode?

I am using GMAIL to view my test emails with and I am having problems getting it to look right. Do the email providers not format HTML email correctly or what?

Any tips or suggestions?

Thanks,

Email providers don't format HTML correctly. Or at least email providers don't format HTML the same. Here are a some articles that should help:

And this is a handy tool that will convert your CSS styles in <head> to inline styles
