Edit View Showing 1 Color Background, Test Showing Another

In the edit mode, my email background is white and the background beyond the border is grey. However, when I send myself a test, the whole thing is coming up as grey which is messing up my images since they are not transparent. Why would the white background I am seeing not be 'true'? Thanks!

Without actually looking at the code, it sounds like an HTML programming issue with the hierarchy of the <table></table> pairs

Go download the HTML for Marketo's sample "rounded corners" email:
https://community.marketo.com/MarketoArticle?id=kA050000000KzQSCA0

View the source, and search for "background-color".  Look at how the <table> </table> pairs that define a background color are nested--the closing </table> tag for one doesn't overlapping the opening <table> for another table.
