Feature request
I'd like to propose a more compact design for the email notifications that Nextcloud sends.
In my regular window size all relevant info is outside of the visible area. It feels a bit wasteful of the screen real estate. And I prefer to not have to scroll to be able to read the message content.
I'm no designer, but I've used my best Gimp skills to create a mockup of what I think would be an improvement.
(Moved from https://github.com/nextcloud/notifications/issues/2101)
**Which Nextcloud Version are you currently using: 30.0.2
Describe the solution you'd like
Would be nice if the mail templates could be updated to have a more compact layout.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I could resize the window, but then it would be too big for most of the other mails.
