Email (HTML) to teams channel looses color - colors

In MSSQL, I generate and send a status mail to a team's Channel (and to my mail account). The mail looks fine in outlook, but in teams, the colors are gone.
Part of the html:
<td style="color:Green" align="right">44</td>

We have raised a bug on this and concerned team is working on it.

I hit the same issue, I resolved it by using the HEX values instead:
<td style="color:#00ff00" align="right">44</td>

Acumatica - Outlook PlugIn Reply Action

we are using Acumatica outlook plugin to create CASES and we are successful in achieving it.
As you know outlook plugin will automatically create a email activity when we create case. So sometimes we send reply from Outlook plugin and some times we send reply from Acumatica.
The issue is - When we send reply from outlook plugin we are unable to see email in "All Emails" screen, but if we are sending reply to same case from Acumatica we are able to see email in "All Emails" screen.
Can someone please suggest us, what we are missing here.
We are in 2019R2, without any customization published.
There could be a couple of reasons you may be running into this problem. Depending on how you have your setup, one reason could be because of the way you have your System Email Account set up. Check what email is sending as, it could be sending a centralized account. Also check what you default email is set on your account.
Also, are you using the Outgoing Tab? Or looking looking at the all records tab? It could be because of the status of your email. When sending through the Outlook plugin, double check the emails are sending, and double check the status of the activity. It could not be completing and being left as an open item.

Gmail won't display images from external sources or inline base64 from my HTML emails

I'm automating some HTML email notification to my users in my node server, sending emails using Nodemailer and one of my 'no-reply' g suite emails.
In my node server, I build my HTML emails dynamically, based on content and notification type, and in all of them I want to include social media icons, my company logo (served from my server public assets folder) and in some of them an inline base64 qrcode for user interaction.
In Outlook all images are perfectly visible, even the base64 one, but when I try to view it in gmail, it just won't display. This has something to do with the proxy that gmail uses by default, but I couldn't figure why this is happening with my emails.
I receive tons of html emails with images in gmail, and all them work pretty fine.
I've done a lot of research already, and followed all tips related to gmail 'Images' configs, but nothing works.
What can I do to make my images visible in gmail??
Thanks!
Base64 images are not supported by Gmail, Yahoo and problematic in other email clients.
The best way to make your images visible is to host your images remotely and link to them.
As an example:
<img src="https://via.placeholder.com/200x50" width="200" height="50" alt="alt_text" border="0" />
As opposed to:
<img alt="Embedded Image" src="data:image/png;base64,ieMailBoreGoWALLYNSUyEAAAEIEIO..." />
Good luck.

How to show something in Gmail message between subject and body?

I need to paste table (details of event) beetwen subject and body of the gmail message. Watch the example image http://i.stack.imgur.com/jQqqU.jpg
It's some feature of Gmail, I think. It looks like invitation of google calendar event, but it's not the same.
How to do it?
Thanks

Lotus Notes handling mailto links from HTML formated emails

I am sending emails to different users in my corporation. Some of our clients use Lotus Notes (8).
These emails are generated by the server. Inside this email (HTML formatted), there is a link to a "mailto":
Please <a href="mailto:myaddress#mycorp.ca" >click here</a> to reply.
There is nothing else in the body of the email.
Unfortunatly, when I click on this link (wich does appear as a link when reading the email from a Lotus Notes client), I get this error:
\\mailto:myaddress#mycorp.ca is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network ressource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access
permissions.
The parameter is incorrect.
On the other hand, if I create the email manually through the Notes client (using a "HotSpot"), the link works... Unfortunatly, generating the email with the Lotus Notes API is not a possibility because (a) we do not have a Domino server in our corporation, and (b) not all of our users use Lotus Notes...
Question: Is there a way to fix this problem without using the Lotus Notes API?
I have tried this :
<div onclick="window.navigate('mailto:myaddress#mycorp.ca');" >Click Here</div>
but the javascript code is ignored... (probably a javascript security restriction in the client).
I have also considered not using HTML format in my emails; I could do most of my formatting using Rich Text Format, but I do not know what syntaxt would generate a Hotspot (or a functional mailto link) in the RTF content...
I am not sure that there is a way for one link that will work for both clients - Outlook and Lotus.
Lotus Notes developers call it HotSpot.
Check those links, if you can create it manually - send it to yourself and check the sent HTML.

Lotus Notes doesn't send customised button

I created a customised button with some simple actions attached to it in Lotus Notes 6.5. It's just a simple voting button, which I emailed to a group of nearly 200 people. While sending I got a pop up telling me that the button can't be send. After about 10 seconds I got a first reply asking 'where's the button'. Then an avalanche of very clever emails followed, such as: 'no button', 'where's the button', etc.
Before I spammed everyon I had tried the email on my work mate and the button went through fine!
Any ideas? I suspect some security policy....
I really need to send this mail and get the survey results, so I don't want to fail again. Any suggestions appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Damo
Might be an issue if some recipients don't have Notes e-mail account.
If your gathering information then assuming you are going to store the data in a Lotus notes database create a form where they can input it directly and just send them a doc link to the database.
Buttons can be weird because if they contain code that is restricted by the ECL of the workstation then notes may automatically hide the button on the basis that it won't let the code run so hide it by default. You may be able to get round this by having the system admins send the button on your behalf.
This may be a daft question, but did you actually send the email to other Lotus Notes users via your Notes infrastructure? If not, the mail routers will have stripped the mail of any proprietary Notes stuff as it wings out to the internet.
You mention an error message, what was it exactly? AndrewB mentions that your organisation's ECL may be kicking in; alternatively, if you use 3rd party spam / trojan protection, that might have had something to do with it, I don't know.
