    When it comes to HTML emails, as much as I hate to say it, table layouts are your friends.

    Tables are rendered a lot more consistently across email clients than CSS styles are, and therefore I would recommend using these if you wish to support the majority of clients.

    As some comments have also pointed out, I would suggest cleaning up your HTML so that it is valid. This will also help with email clients being able to understand your code.
