I'm having some trouble finding away to remove the padding or margin default values from around my html email in most versions of outlook. I was wondering if there is something that I can put into my HTML email to prevent the padding/margin from showing.
Thanks

The right answer for this question is "css reset". It removes all default margin and padding for every object on the page, no holds barred, regardless of browser.
Click PAGE LAYOUT > Margins. At the bottom, click Custom Margins. In the Page Setup box, enter new values for the margins. Click the Set As Default button.
On the Format tab, click the Expander icon to open the Paragraph dialog. (If the ruler is visible, you can point to the indentation triangles and double click to open the dialog instead.) The Left and Right Indentations should be set to zero.
This margin is automatically created by some browsers to allow for space between the edges of the viewport and the website content. You can remove this margin by setting the top and left margin to zero.
This works:
<body style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; background-color: #252525" bgcolor="#252525">
Just note whatever you set the body background color to will bleed into the email chain if it is forwarded. I'd suggest leaving the body white and setting the color on a html container table to prevent this.

Also if you need for your table cells to be completely flat without padding and empty make sure to add this to the table:
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
And in the case of the empty cells
<td style="font-size:0px;">
