HTML disappearing in email signature

[Blue Billywig]

I've been using w3schools editor to create an email signature in HTML. Everything seems to be working fine, until I send it to Hotmail and then forward it to another mailingprogram.

Somehow the social icons at the bottom disappear. And I wonder wether that's something that Hotmail does or if it's something that's going wrong in the code.

It's probably what your other mailing program is doing.  I experience similar issues.  

I generally don't pursue these kinds of issues unless they're critical which they seldom are. Whereas the web processes code in mostly standard ways, what happens to an email after it hits a server, seems to be the wild west.
