I'm designing an html newsletter which runs so far very correct on every email client.
On mobile devices it should stretch to 100% width, which it does so far.
But:
On iphone mail when the mail opens, for a second I see the hundred percent width until then a space on the right gets added. It's always the same spaced space.
I tried reducing my code to the minimum to see what the reason could be. There I found out it could be links, it could be a border. Sometimes it works again and then again not.
Is there some mystery about 100% width on iphone in html newsletters that I didn't yet know about?

In this provided code 100% width will only work without the anchor.
<body style="min-width: 100%">
fixes the problem.
Ok, I found a working solution:
Just set:
table {
width: 99%; /* 99.99 % doesn't seem to work */
margin: 0 auto;
}
To get rid of the very small minimal gap, I just set the background-color the same as my table.
Fixed for now!
