excelHtml5 export and cell data wrapped with < >

It looks like excelHtml5 export extension treats cell data which is wrapped with < > as a HTML tag and will not export it. Good examples is SMTP msg Id which looks like <123414124124.null@domain.com> and that will be saved as empty cell.
Any thoughts on that?

Your specific example works here:

However you may be looking for the
stripHtmloption of the Excel exportOptions. Take a look at this thread for an example:https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/comment/151251/#Comment_151251

It look like when I use hardcoded table it will export those entries correctly but when retrieved from the API as JSON it will not
Did you try the
stripHtml: falseoption shown in the thread I linked to?Kevin
Hmm, interesting - I thought it is set as false by default.
PS. How to mark your response as correct answer?
