Adjust the default margins and padding of email header images specifically for Outlook emails

I am currently working on coding an email, and I have encountered an issue with the alignment of the hero image, specifically in Outlook.

https://i.sstatic.net/ap7SG.png

Despite trying various solutions from previous answers to this problem (such as setting the font size to 0, removing margins, and adding an extra table for the image), it seems that these solutions are outdated. It is possible that a recent update in Outlook has caused this alignment issue.

Below is a snippet of my code:

Answer №1

If you're looking for a CSS Cheatsheet that can reset most styles across various email providers, make sure to include it before your own styles.

/* Client-specific Styles */

#outlook a {
padding: 0;

/* This forces Outlook to show a "view in browser" menu link. */
