|  Not sure if this is what KMail uses, but I guess it is:
|
|  <table>
|  <tr>
|    <td>From:</td>
|    <td>My name and email address</td>
|  </tr>
|  <tr>
|    <td>To:</td>
|    <td>Your name and email address</td>
|  </tr>
|  <tr>
|    <td>Date:</td>
|    <td>Some date</td>
|  </tr>
|  </table>

Can you please confirm that you expect behavior (rendering) like in corrected 
example (attached)
In you variant, table was taking only 30% of the screen (not 100%)
Alternatively, send me fully-formatted, 'tabled' HTML from KMail
(can someone from KMail developers tell us what's real HTML for KMail's fancy 
message headers?)

For peoplke who don't like attachments 389bytes in size, corrected code 
inline:
---------
<html>
<head><title> html for KMail - tables </title>
<style type="text/css">
  table { border: 1px solid navy; width: 100% }
  .left { width: 4em }
</style>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
  <td class="left">From:</td>
  <td>My name and email address</td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td>To:</td>
  <td>Your name and email address</td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td>Date:</td>
  <td>Some date</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
---------

|  And then with CSS or HTML 3 (hope not! ;-) styling, but for converting to
|  divs/spans those are not important.
|
|  If you want this to all align properly I fail to see how you can get rid
| of the tables...
