Formatting for outlook html email, specifically removing border spacing in tables

Im guessing that outlook 07+ (the ones using MS Word for html) doesnt support the global CSS (*) and adding border-spacing 0 and padding 0 to the cells is not working, so what do I need to d开发者_开发问答o to get rid of the cell padding and border-spacing?

Edit* border-collapse is not working either. Do I need to specifiy Doctype for html emails to get it to work?

It depends on your design, but you should always start with something like this...

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">

You may also need to add some inline styles like the following style rules to get rid of some other spacing, but this will effect the text inside the table.

style="font-size: 0; line-height: 0; padding: 0; margin: 0;"
