 * Hello, I need to have tables in my newsletters to display some financial data.
   Some of those tables need colspan and rowspan on cells to display the data correctly.
   However when I add a table from a post or through the editor, these colspan and
   rowspan attributes are removed. Can you let me know how to stop these from being
   stripped? Either a setting or some code I can adjust in the plugin files. Thanks.

 * Unfortunately, custom HTML cannot be included in a newsletter using our email
   editor.
 * It will be automatically removed due to the rendering process ensuring maximum
   compatibility across a range of email clients.
 * In some cases, you can create a custom shortcode following this guide:
