Outlook displays org-msg emails in a narrow column #131

Closed TS-CUBED closed 2 years ago

TS-CUBED commented 2 years ago

When I send an org-msg email through mu4e the message gets encoded as html fine.

Most clients (including the Outlook desktop app) will display these emails nicely.

However, the Outlook online client, and the Outlook mobile app, will display them in a narrow column, rather than the fixed column width of 90 characters that the HTML code has.

Not sure how to provide debugging info here, since the problem seems to be on MS's side, but maybe somebody knows which HTML setting could cause this.

Could you look at #59 to see if this is similar ?

TS-CUBED commented 2 years ago

This is indeed the same effect. Looking at the HTML source of the offending emails, they contain lines:

<p style="text-decoration:none;line-height:1.4;margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:0px;font-size:11pt;max-width:90ch;">

so there is a maximum width given, which is what seemed to have caused the problem in #59

The old issue was from 2020 and there seems to have been a commit addressing it. So what would be the best way to address that?

Will need to check which version of org-msg Doom pulls in currently. But there was a recent update, so I assume it would be a relatively up-to-date one.

Hello, this helped me hunt down the problem. The bug is in the Doom config.el for the org-msg part of Doom's mu4e module. Not in the org-msg.el that comes with org-msg.

So I'll raise an issue with Doom Emacs and close this one.

I fixed this for now by overriding Doom's custom styles. I preferred the ones org-msg provides by default anyway.
