Most of our clients use MS Outlook as their standard email client. We've noticed that the HTML generated for the Idea Portal email notifications is not Outlook-friendly. Specifically, the body of the email is all centered in the page, making it look really unprofessional to our clients.
I recommend that your team add Outlook-friendly encoding to each of the 4 different email notifiations that are sent from the Idea Portal feature so that the text is properly left-aligned when read within Outlook.
Thank you for the feedback!
We will keep listening to hear if more customers would also like to left-align the contents of the email.
There are some adjustments that can be made in the email today with in-line styling. For example, you can add a style within an html element, like this one in the email body field <h3 style="color: dimgray; text-align: left;">.
We put everything inside a <div> tag. (see code sample below). If I understand your suggestion, we maybe should use the inline CSS for the <p> tag instead, yes?
