I made up a flyer like message for some property I'm trying to seel in
Outlook. I had it formatted just the way I wanted, but when I sent it to my
Yahoo account to test it, the formatting was all messed up. How do I keep it
from doing this?

Hard to say without any details. You have to be aware that designing for a
website is something different than designing for a mail client. Mail
clients and especially web based mail clients do not support all HTML and
CSS formatting options in the way a webpage would.

Save it as a .pdf and insert that in your mail. .pdf is not subject to the same formatting changes as other file formats.
