Exported MailChimp HTML template is looking different

Question

When I send test mail from MAilchimp it looks fine

But when I export the template code and send it through putsmail.com or other service it strips the styling

What am I missing here ?

The Code i.e. html n css

Answer 1

When you export your email template from Mailchimp the css is still in the head of the email and is not inlined yet. Gmail strips out the CSS automatically which is why it looks different. All email clients handle this differently which is why it's good to inline your styles. Mailchimp actually offers their own inliner tool.

Run the exported HTML through this and then try sending the new inlined code. It should get you closer to where you want to be.
