Fix Default Image Blocking Layouts 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 Default Image Blocking Layouts inside Samsung Email templates when using React Email.
Technical Breakdown
Samsung Email uses the WebKit which lacks support for standard rendering rules. This causes Default Image Blocking Layouts 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 resolve this, always define explicit width and height attributes on your images to preserve their layout boxes when blocked. Add robust alternative (ALT) text styled with CSS font-sizes and colors, and encode vital brand logos directly as Base64 data URIs. In your React Email campaign manager, make sure you configure your links to run via {unsubscribeUrl}.

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.
