- willdr 2y agocan you elaborate?
- joe8756438 2y agothe mjml components unpack to a very large number of html tags. so depending on how you structure the doc it can exceed the gmail doc size with a surprisingly small amount of content
- iamacyborg 2y agoGmail will clip emails if they’re larger than (I think) 104kb. Using frameworks like mjml can add a lot of arbitrary markup that’ll rapidly increase the size of your email.
