With HTML email you need to go back to the dark ages and use tables. Sad but true.

Rock Solid HTML Emails will help you.

Tables are the best things you can use for newsletters. Also remember that if are you using CSS it's better if you do it inline. In other words, like this:

<table style="margin: 0 0 15px 50px; color: #FFFFFF;"></table>

Do not have CSS in the header.

Yes @Alex is right when he says use in-line CSS. One thing though, No CSS shorthand is used: instead of using the abbreviated style rule margin:0 0 15px 50px use margin-top:0; margin-right:0; margin-bottom:15px; margin-left:50px;
