      Issue Summary

      If you put style tags in an <a> tag in the customized email, the style is changed in the email that gets sent and not all email clients can properly display the link.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create an automation to send a customized email
      2. Place style tags in an <a> tag in the email body
        1. <a href="https://www.google.com" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: #FF00FF; background-color:#FFFE8C; border: 2px solid #89CFF0; padding: 10px; display: inline-block;">This is a test of link styles</a>
      3. send the email

      Expected Results

      The tags in the email should remain the same.

      Actual Results

      The style tags are replaced with hex - you may need to view original email in gmail to see it.

      Workaround

      Put the style in a <span>
