Does not honor CSS body margins?

Sorry for the duplicate, but I think the first one went to "All Products" and I'm afraid it might get lost.

I have CSS in a stationery file (tried it in a signature also) and Thunderbird recognizes the CSS while I'm editing/composing it, but if I send it to myself, it does not honor it? In other words, correct margins outgoing, no margins incoming.

Makes me wonder if the margins will work for the recipient..?

I am just trying to set some body margins:

body { margin-left:50; margin-right:20; margin-top:20; margin-bottom:0; }

I kinda hate it bumping all up against the side panel... :(

EDIT: It doesn't honor the CSS in the Sent folder, either.

Interesting. It's the theme's fault! lol

I've been using the Nautipolis theme, and when I switch back to default theme the margins are all there.

Yo, Mr. Alfred Kayser. Your theme is awesome, but you need to beef up the CSS recognizer thingy!

Or just put about 50px left and right, 20px top, and we're all good :)
