HTML tablet borders will not go away

I'm having problems with an HTML email letter that I'm creating. I'm use to doing great stuff with CSS, but now people want these creations to appear in a email newsletter.

I have made a design that will work, hardcoded with no CSS styling. It would work perfectly if I cold get rid of the borders of the tablets. I have given them a border="0", and the only thing that will do is make them transparent, but the space is still there.

So My question is, how to I get rid of the spaces that the borders make?

UPDATE:
The Problems has been fixed, with CELLPADDING and CELLSPACING.

You can use CSS in an HTML email, you just have to put all the styles in-line, and you're still basically stuck with tables for layout because of the lousy CSS support of so many email clients.

I'm working with some e-mail clients that have no style support what so ever, so I need to find a plane HTML way off getting rid of these spaces.

here is a example of the email I'm trying to make.

My suggestion would be to try adding up the width's of all the cells, and specify the width of those. You can do that without CSS.

P.S. The link you posted does have some css in it.
