Hi Bojana,
I imagine you are talking about HTML email with some styles applied.
18 months ago I surveyed various web mail services to see if they handled
styling, and how well. At that time, Hotmail did some serious damage to
styles, embedded or inline. For one thing, it simply erased any mention
of "margin".

I suggest you view source to investigate. Also, use the Firefox developer
extension or something similar to let you view the CSS that the mail=
 service
applies. Warning - keep some headache pills handy.

Cordially, David
