What is Plain Text Email?

Quick Answer

An email containing only text with no HTML formatting, images, or styling.

Plain text emails are simple text-only messages with no formatting, images, or HTML. They feel more personal and conversational — like an email from a colleague. Plain text emails often achieve higher deliverability because spam filters are more suspicious of HTML emails with links. Always include a plain-text alternative (multipart/alternative MIME type) alongside HTML emails. MisarMail automatically generates plain-text versions from your HTML campaigns.
