Width of a mailing/module – 600 pixels

Mailings must be 600 pixels wide. Only then is the correct display in email programs ensured.

You can change the width of elements using the Layout (Module) element. The width of elements in a module together with the distances left and right must always be 600px, however.

Example

In this example, the image is 600px wide. This corresponds to the template.

In this example, the image is 400px wide. So that the module or mailing width is 600px, the left and rights distances have each been set to 100px.
