I'm in the development phase of a welcome email. I would like to know the most correct and used practice of adding the style in my email.
My question is: should I use inline, embedded, or external CSS?
I've noticed that many sites use the inline form, but I'm worried about maintenance in the future.
Using CSS linked is easier to change colors and background if you keep the same structure.
CSS linked is the recommended template, because in this model all the code CSS is in a separate file and can be linked to several pages from the website. This is the best model to promote the reuse of code.
However in case of email avoid using external CSS.

On the google page you can also find this very useful information about the operation of gmail
There are tools that convert the linked CSS code into inline CSS I give the following example
See this article link .
Basically, it says that if you use the <style>...</style> tags in the header or body of your email, life's GMail will ignore them.
In other words, in order for all mailclient to display your email correctly, you must use the tag's built-in style.
