I need help with an email html/css blast that I'm using. The HTML and CSS code was designed by a webmaster I found on Elance. I've used this as a template for a handful of email blasts I am sending out.

When I view the email in my email program, it looks good. However, I am having a variety of people saying it looks messed up in their email. Yahoo & AOL for starts, and even one person using Outlook Express.

Any suggestions as to how to fix this? I really need help. I've tried going back to the original webguy but he's not responding...

Here's the URL's for the html and the css...

Thanks, I really need help.. I'm not a web person..

Outlook 7 doesn't allow for CSS positioning or background images, inline CSS etc so that template is going to be problematic as it uses absolute positioning.

This brings up a good question, what is your form email newsletter and such, what has worked for people, and how did you avoid these issues?

As for a fix, generally you are restricted with security these days in this displaying properly with all the different mail platforms also its a tough one
