Fix Outlook Button Border Collapsing in Samsung Email — React Email Guide for Deliverability & Spam Audits
Spam filters analyze email HTML code quality alongside body copy. Unclosed tags, excessive styling block nesting, and broken link parameters are flagged as spam risks. Below is the targeted integration guide to fix Outlook Button Border Collapsing inside Samsung Email templates when using React Email.
Technical Breakdown
Samsung Email uses the WebKit which lacks support for standard rendering rules. This causes Outlook Button Border Collapsing elements to break or collapse when rendering templates.
React Email Behaviors
React Email relies on compiling CSS parameters dynamically. However, React Email's compiler cannot parse raw MSO conditional comments or VML structures in TSX files directly. Run your finished layouts through the Spam Word Auditor to catch trigger phrases and verify structural delivery alignments before launching.
Remediation Code Block
To guarantee perfectly rounded buttons inside Outlook, we must generate a hybrid VML (Vector Markup Language) roundrect structure overlaid with normal HTML tables. VML is read only by Outlook, while WebKit clients read the HTML layout. In your React Email campaign manager, make sure you configure your links to run via {unsubscribeUrl}.
<!--[if mso]>
<v:roundrect xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" href="{unsubscribeUrl}" style="height:44px;v-text-anchor:middle;width:200px;" arcsize="15%" stroke="f" fillcolor="#720e9e">
<w:anchorlock/>
<center style="color:#ffffff;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-weight:bold;">Click Here</center>
</v:roundrect>
<![endif]-->
<!--[if !mso]><!-->
<table role="presentation" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse:collapse;">
<tr><td align="center" bgcolor="#720e9e" style="border-radius:6px;"><a href="{unsubscribeUrl}" style="padding:12px 24px;color:#ffffff;display:inline-block;text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;">Click Here</a></td></tr>

How to Deploy inside React Email
Copy the fixed VML or table wrapper code block from the remediation box above.
Import the standard '<Html>' or '<Container>' primitives. To insert our VML or custom Outlook table markup directly, wrap the raw HTML snippet inside React's 'dangerouslySetInnerHTML' parameter on a div or span.
