I have created an html signature, with the body at 8px, but when I
create a new email it makes the body of the email 8px. Any idea how to
fix this ( or in other words, what have I done wrong)?

Paste HTML code here, so we can see what is wrong.

Probably CSS rule selector is too wide.

Yes, it is what I talking about.
Sig should contain ONLY html that will be in sig, not full html file code.

Change it to (dash line is separator only):

DF, try this simplified version - will look beautiful on proper mail clients (that
support css styles without having to be in-line). Probably reasonable on others. The
most important change is to add a class to your <p> tag that asks for the new size
specifically - YMMV.
