Hello,
I am working on an email to be sent on Sunday and notice lines in the test email that don't appear in my editor. I've attached a screenshot of these lines, and there are more further down the email. If it helps I am using Outlook 2016.
Thank you

Hello @LauraP25363 ,
We're sorry to see you've run into this issue. This is a widespread bug with Microsoft Outlook that affects all ESP emails, not just Constant Contact. There are currently no legitimate workarounds for this issue, however, it only seems to affect Outlook. Microsoft is aware of the issue and we're closely watching for fixes that are made available. If any are made available, we will take advantage of them. The primary issue is that the lines are random, the next test or live send, they could end up in different positions or disappear entirely.
That said, there are a couple potential workarounds you could try:
I've still gone ahead and tracked your case for our engineers, but again this is something we and other ESPs are having to rely on Microsoft to figure out, as it is only affecting Outlook 2016 and 2018.

Thank you very much!
It seems like this has been a bug for over a year? any end in sight on when it will be fixed?
Hi! We've been having the same issue, but I think I just figured it out.
Under 'Design' go to 'Buttons & Dividers' and change the color to white. Save and sent a test email to yourself - I did this and, NO LINES!! #Yaayyy I hope it works for you!!
