I also removed the plain-text requirement. This means that HTML table tags work.

P.S. Whoever came up with the idea to have Reply-To set to agora-discussion, 
you are a genius.

 I vote AGAINST on proposal 7756. (The problem is that some browser-based
 email clients / email archive sites use proportional fonts, and some use
 fixed-width fonts. Given that these have different metrics, and that
 proportional fonts can have different metrics from each other too, this
 is basically equivalent to outlawing tabular data altogether.)

Which means reports will be unreadable in plain text, because whatever
plain-text equivalent the renderer sends in place of table is not
going to work.
