<title>HTML emails are not correctly displayed</title>

<p>If an HTML message is not correctly displayed in Evolution it might be that the formatting of the message is specified as <link href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascading_Style_Sheets">CSS</link>. CSS is currently not supported by gtkhtml (the part that is used to display HTML).</p>
<p>This will likely be fixed in version 3.4.</p>
<p>For developers only: In future versions, Evolution will use WebKit instead of gtkhtml for displaying HTML. There is a branch named "<link href="http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution?h=webkit">webkit</link>" in Evolution's code repository to test.</p>

<note style="tip"><p>For missing characters in emails, see <link xref="mail-displaying-character-encodings">Character Encodings and Sets</link>.</p></note>
