## Symptoms
1616

1717
When you send an email in Dynamics 365 Customer Service, the email preview text might display an error or unintended formatting (for example, **{ 0 margins ..**) instead of a meaningful preview. This issue typically occurs when the email content is primarily an image and no explicit email preview text is set.

## Cause

If no explicit email preview text is configured, the system automatically uses the email's content as the preview text. When the email content is an image, the system extracts the formatting details of the image, resulting in unintended text being displayed in the email preview.

If the issue persists, consider disabling the modern rich text editor experience by following the steps in [Revert from the modern rich text editor experience to the classic experience](/power-apps/maker/model-driven-apps/rich-text-editor-control#revert-from-the-modern-rich-text-editor-experience-to-the-classic-experience). This setting can also be disabled for the entire organization via the [Setting definition](/power-apps/maker/data-platform/create-edit-configure-settings). Disabling it organization-wide will override the setting for all users.
