In email summaries sent in September, I see them styled this way in gmail: ![Screenshot from 2023-01-16 11-28-21](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/e/2/0/e20c3b1045d2299441e0fdb408470394a5cdf26f.png) Then for those sent in early December, I see them narrower but centered: ![Screenshot from 2023-01-16 11-25-53](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/b/e/b/beb067078aa74d6dfa076b0144aedf89a79f5c34.png) For those sent in late December, I see them narrower and right-justified: ![Screenshot from 2023-01-16 11-26-15](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/4/c/6/4c663d63f7e8738f27f1a37a768972094249d751.png) I haven’t done any changes to email styling from how it is shipped, and I’ve been keeping up with all releases on tests-passed. I don’t see any of these differences in protonmail; they look the same through that whole time. I know that email HTML formatting is a hot mess, and I’m aware that there’s a whole service industry around testing email formatting (e.g. litmus’s email testing service). But I’m curious whether this was an intentional change, or a side effect of some other fix, or “gmail is being random”… --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/email-summary-styling-changed-as-rendered-in-gmail/251940)._
