UnsupportedGmail Mobile · mobile

Fix & Workaround

Wrap text in a <table><td> to force wrapping. overflow-wrap is ignored by Outlook and unreliable in Yahoo.

Before

<p style="overflow-wrap: break-word;">
  https://example.com/very/long/url?token=abc123def456
</p>

After

<table role="presentation" width="100%" cellpadding="0"
  cellspacing="0" border="0">
  <tr>
    <td style="overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;
               word-break: break-all;">
      https://example.com/very/long/url?token=abc123def456
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

Use a table cell to force word wrapping without overflow-wrap
