Hello @EliseF2,

Thank you for contacting us today.  I can see what you are talking about in the email.  Could you please send us an email to communitysupport(at)constantcontact(dot)com with the version of OL and your operating system?  I would be happy to take a closer look for you.

We have been having this same issue for a year with every email made in constant contact received by anyone opening it in Outlook. Why isn’t this resolved yet?

Hello @HMP3 ,

This a known issue that Outlook has with ESP emails. Due to how sporadic the issue occurs (there appears to be no consistency in when it will show up, how often it shows up, or where in an email it will show up), and that it mainly seems to affect ESP emails, we and other companies like us are trying to work with them to figure out what the issue is. However, we are relying on Microsoft to provide a solution, which means we don't have an ETA on a fix at the moment.

The only workaround we can suggest right now is making your outer and inner backgrounds the same color, since that's the coloring / imagery that Outlook is showing in those lines. You can also include a View as Webpage link, if the issue is particularly egregious for your Outlook-using contacts.

Thank you. Considering the original posted inquired in 2018, I don't see any progress has been made in almost 4 years.
