HOW TOasdf USE: Use these code examples as a guideliasdfne for formatting your HTML email. You may want to create your own template based on these snippets or just pick and choose the ones that fix your specific rendering issue(s). There are two main areas in the template: 1. The header (head) area of the document. You will find global styles, where indicated, to move inline. 2. The body section contains more specific fixes and guidance to use where needed in your design.
DO NOT COPY OVER COMMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE CODE to your message or risk spam box banishment :).
It is important to note that sometimes the styles in the header area should not be or don't need to be brought inline. Those instances will be marked accordingly in the comments.
********************************************************
**************************************************** -->
<!-- Using the xHTML doctype is a good practice when sending HTML email. While not the only doctype you can use, it seems to have the least inconsistencies. For more information on which one may work best for you, check out the resources below.
UPDATED: Now using xHTML strict based on the fact that gmail and hotmail uses it. Find out more about that, and another great boilerplate, here: http://www.emailology.org/#1

1. "-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic" works to help ie properly resize images in IE. (if you are resizing them using the width and height attributes)
2. "border:none" removes border when linking images.
3. Updated the common Gmail/Hotmail image display fix: Gmail and Hotmail unwantedly adds in an extra space below images when using non IE browsers. You may not always want all of your images to be block elements. Apply the "image_fix" class to any image you need to fix.

NOTE: This example recommends 1em. More info on setting web defaults: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/sample.html or http://meiert.com/en/blog/20070922/user-agent-style-sheets/
