Thanks for reporting this issue regarding the signature feature. It has been put on our backlog. We unfortunately have no timelines to share at this point.
Internal tracking Id: 8698684.
If you are trying to remove the spaces, i have found that setting these in the style property of the table works as a workaround: padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border-spacing: 0px; border-collapse:collapse
@eleonardos - Thanks for reaching out regarding your issue <
There is a problem with signatures inserted by add-ins in mobile Outlooks. If the signature contains a table with cellspacing or cellpading attributes, these attributes are removed when the signature is inserted. As a result, the signature looks different then on other platforms.
Your Environment
Expected behavior
Signatures inserted in mobile Outlook should look exactly the same as signatures inserted in other Outlooks. This should be consistent across all platforms.
Current behavior
The cellspacing and cellpading table attributes are removed from the signature and because of this the default values are used for removed attributes when displaying the signature. This changes the layout of the signature and makes it look bad.
Steps to reproduce
Here is a sample add-in that you can use to reproduce the problem: https://github.com/eleonardos/mobile-addin-repro. Just deploy the add-in to your account using the following manifest: https://eleonardos.github.io/mobile-addin-repro/manifest.xml. Then open a new message in Outlook e.g. Android and OWA. The signature inserted on Outlook mobile will look bad.
Sample signature inserted in OWA:
The same sample signature inserted in iOS and Android: A black and red background is added to visualize the problem. The black space is added because the cellspacing attribute of the table has been removed, and the red space is added because the cellpadding attribute of the table has been removed.
Without a color backgrounds the signature would still look bad when inserted in iOS and Android as it would have to much space: This problem is especially painful in signatures of real companies, which are much more complex.
Context
Most of our customers use table signatures because they look best on all email clients. By default, the tables have cellspacing="0" and callpadding="0" attributes added. With the new support for mobile Outlooks, the signatures look worse when inserted on mobiles.
