Font sizes in email templates: px, % or em?
I'm creating some templates but I wanted to make sure they are mobile first oriented. My question is what is the best practice for font sizes in emails? Is it px, percents or ems?

This email by Paul Airy breaks down each option: http://bit.ly/2q6UDRp , when I did my typography study most were still using px for font size...
Thanks for the responses. I noticed that px seemed to work across all the email clients while em did not so It's kind of a relief that px is best practice anyway. I have been using % for padding and it seems to translate well between desktop and mobile.
