spaces in email message that shouldn't be there

Hi, I typed in some extra sentences in the message email body for the alerts.
in the back end it reads right, but when I get the email there are random spaces in words

e.g. this sentance looks fine in the backend but when emailed there is a space in ‘about’ – ‘abou t’ – see below:

Please be sure to contact us via email if you have any questions abou t your child’s enrolment.

this happens in a few spots, any way to get rid of these random spaces?

Hello,

That isn’t intentional. Are the spacing issues happening with just the areas that were edited or is it in random areas of the email?

it is in the next text that I have added, dont think I have noticed else where.

see below screen shots of the back end looking fine, but when emailed several spaces in words appeared – highlighted in yellow. I tested it with someone elses email and it happens too.

Hi there Smart Robbie,

Can you switch to the Text tab of the editor? This way you’ll be able to check for any tags or event something like a  , which would not appear in the Visual editor mode.

Thanks for checking. If you add the word “about” to a page on your website, does a space appear there? Also, does the space appear when you view the preview?

No only appears in the email when received (eg in outlook or
Gmail)

Can you post the entire contents of the message section into a pastebin or gist, then link to it here, so we can investigate further?
