Alex Ferrer (ID: 000000233ea53e04) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 06/16/2023 Everything is fine except for one issue with the plugin. It appears that the plugin doesn't properly retain the font size of the email header, specifically the salutation. After sending the email, you'll notice that Gmail automatically converts it to a smaller font. It would be greatly appreciated if this could be addressed in a future update.
