      Hi,

      I faced an strange issue when sending emails for one of the pipelines. 

      I'm sourcing a value from a file, as it was easier way I found to inject it to mail body, nevertheless there is a prefix "ÿþh" in the mail, even do such symbols does not exist in text file I source, so it's clearly something related to the html conversion. 

      Same plugin does work fine for other mail notifications without having this prefix.

      Attaching some screenshots below.
