Fix Custom Font Fallback Overrides in Samsung Email — Brevo (Sendinblue) 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 Custom Font Fallback Overrides inside Samsung Email templates when using Brevo (Sendinblue).
Technical Breakdown
Samsung Email uses the WebKit which lacks support for standard rendering rules. This causes Custom Font Fallback Overrides elements to break or collapse when rendering templates.
Brevo (Sendinblue) Behaviors
Brevo's rendering system injects inline spacing helpers to support their responsive editor, which can cause column overlaps in Outlook. Using explicit table alignments is required. Run your finished layouts through the Spam Word Auditor to catch trigger phrases and verify structural delivery alignments before launching.
Remediation Code Block
To prevent Outlook's Times New Roman fallback override, wrap your custom font declarations inside an @media block that Outlook ignores, or use MSO conditional statements to override font-families specifically for Microsoft Word rendering engines. In your Brevo (Sendinblue) campaign manager, make sure you configure your links to run via {{ unsubscribe }}.
