That said, in some email clients like Gmail they will remove the hidden style and you will get your message in plain text at the top of your email. Hi Sebastian,

I'm trying to find an answer to that but it doesn't seem to be much written about it. Hi and thanks for the tip,

I've only used my own custom HTML templates with it though. I haven’t used Campaign Monitor, but in Mailchimp you should just be able to add it to your template.

My immediate reaction was, why didn't I think of that! Thanks also for taking the extra step and testing to see if this technique triggers the spam filters. The only drawback to this is that I'll have to code my newsletters manually. I don't think I can do the hidden text in my Mailchimp or Campaign Monitor templates. Any ideas? Great tip!
