I realise this has been asked many times before so apologies if I'm repeating myself but having followed many other tips on this I'm getting some weird behaviours in Gmail.
If I open the below code in a browser, copy it and then paste it into a Gmail sig (via Settings) the text respects the text-decoration attribute (I'm using the span and !important as advised by other posts).
I can now create/send emails and the styling is respected.
But if I quit Gmail and then log-in again, the text-decoration:none styling is suddenly ignored. The only way to 'repair' is to copy/paste the sig back in again (via Settings).
I'm wondering if something has changed in Gmail as I've been using this sig for a good year or so and it's only recently that I've noticed this behaviour.
Anybody else experienced this (or can see anything wrong with my code)?

The issue is a bug with Google's fork of Webkit Layout Engine, Blink. When just viewing the Gmail Settings page in Chrome, the "text-decoration:none" style tag is completely removed from your signature permanently.
I found a hack to fix this issue though:
or do the following:
Voila, no more underscores ever (or at least until you change your signature once again).
