You can use inline styles, or even embedded styles within the <body> tag,
but OK.

But that doesn't answer how I can avoid automatically creating a style
when I
have text highlighted and, for example, hit the bold button.
In Preferences > General, select to use HTML instead of CSS.

style
is automatically created and it needs to create inline styles.

Exactly, we can only use inline styles and not stylesheets. Dreamweaver will
automatically create internal stylesheets rather than inline styles unless the
preferences are changed to the settings that you mention.

If you know of a way to use an internal stylesheet and maintain formatting in
any email client, I'd prefer to do it that way. But all sources that I've seen
say that only inline styles should be used.

Here's what I do. I create the page using an embedded stylesheet. When I'm
ready to publish, I copy the embedded stylesheet into the body of the page
(immediately below the <body> tag). That has worked pretty fine for me.
