Hotmail does not support margin in HTML emails. Is there an alternative?
I would suggest use tables and play with the width of columns. HTML emails are sometimes better with tables. Also, you can take a look at an email you have in your inbox that does what you want and inspect source code.
As this answer seems a little vague I would also like to point to a very complete answer which covers in more details html emails.
Note:
When it comes to email HTML, note that all best practices from web development goes out the window.
Here is an example using tables,
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left" style="width:600px;margin:0 auto;background:#FFF;">
<tr>
<td colspan="5" style="padding:15px 0;">
<h1 style="color:#000;font-size:24px;padding:0 15px;margin:0;">Header</h1>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width:15px;"> </td>
<td style="width:375px;">
Left Column Content
</td>
<td style="width:15px;"> </td>
<td style="width:180px;padding:0 0 0 0;">
Sidebar Content
</td>
<td style="width:15px;"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="5" style="padding:15px 0;">
<p style="color:#666;font-size:12px;padding:0 15px;margin:0;">Footer</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
