Incidentally can you forward a screenshot to me so I can see exactly |

how poorly it integrated with your normal settings? I don't expect I |
| 45 |
can get GMail to take a bug report, but if its HTML emails are setting |
| 46 |
things like fixed sizes, that's something that needs to be brought up. |

(I certainly wasn't copy/pasting or setting _anything_ manually. I |

avoid that as much as possible.) |
