Hi Ruben, First huge thx. Love Mailplane!
So my signature appears just great in Mailplane. My problem is that every user (especially Outlook users) are complaining that the body of my email is in different font sizes and types. The use of GMAIL "default style" does not fix the problem. With that enabled or not the Outlook user still see my email as different font sizes and types (mainly Times seem to show up on their end). So if a .css file can only changes the way Gmail look.... HOW CAN ONE force TAHOMA to be the default FONT when a Outlook user views a Gmail email. Ruben... it would seem that Gmail HTML emails have no way of FORCING a format correctly within Outlook. Could it be that Gmail is displaying poorly for millions of users but everyone is so busy that no one is bothering to let each other know? Could be that Outlook users are so use to seeing email display poorly they could be say nothing?
