These are added within a <style> section in the header. This works all nicely in most modern email clients, but Outlook does not load webfonts and falls back to Times New Roman, which might not always be desired.
Add this to the header <style> section as well. This makes sure that in clients, that allow Webfonts, your font is actually being used.
In the body of the email template, you assign your font-family styles for the text, but making sure that Arial is listed first.
Outlook will than use Arial for the text styling.
In modern clients this will be overwritten with the “style rule” above, which checks for YourFont and updates the font-family styling accordingly.

I am a full-stack developer. My expertise include:
I love programming, design and know my way around server architecture as well. I would never feel complete, with one of these missing.
I have a broad range of interests, that’s why I constantly dive into new technologies and expand my knowledge where ever required. Technologies are evolving fast and I enjoy using the latest.
Apart from that, I am a peace loving guy who tries to have people around him that think the same. I truly believe in the principle: “If you help someone, someone will help you, when you need it."
