I'm not sure if this would work, but if you only intend to have pretty
static HTML - say for formatting data into a table this might be the
easiest way.
Use an HTML editor to send an email to yourself with the formatting
and dummy data. Then look at the source, and have the script fill in
meaningful data into that HTML 'template'...
