Forwarding an Email Designer message
There is a known issue with Email Designer communications where, when using the forwarding option in GrowthZone, the forwarded message displays double-spacing instead of the original spacing. At this time, the workaround is to save your Email Designer message as a template, then send the template out as opposed to forwarding a previously send Email Designer message.
