I created this signature using htmlsig.com. When I insert it into thunderbird I get the red boxes. How do I get rid of them? I've contacted htmlsig already and they said it was a thunderbird issue. Any help would be great on this!

Chosen solution

Do the boxes have dotted red lines?

When I looked into it earlier this year, I discovered that Thunderbird displays dotted red borders on tables and table cells during editing so you can understand the structure of the HTML in that area. However, those are not part of the HTML and should not appear in the sent/received message.

Is that your experience?

The boxes do I have dotted red lines. When I saw that, I never even proceeded w/ trying to use it. Once I received your response, I went ahead and tried using it, and sure enough - once the email was sent, the dotted red lines were no longer there. Thank you for pointing that out to me!
