 * My host has disabled libxml entity loader for security reasons, and wp html mail
   shows a lot of errors now that look like the below.
    Any chance of updating the
   plugin to not use the security sensitive library?

 * Hello [@technologypoet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/technologypoet/),
   
   We need this library to parse the HTML code and apply CSS rules as inline styles.
   Otherwise the formatting would be removed by webmail clients.
