Well, when the message doesn't adapt to the medium, it's of limited utility to argue the problem is the medium. You can argue as long as you want, just don't expect it to change ;)
It seems like an easy resolution to this would be to just point people at the wiki. So instead of sending variously-formatted emails that contain the whole thing, just "Hey, we've released a new report! It's on the wiki at [URL] and contains, amongst other things, [2-3 really cool/interesting things]. Hope you enjoy!" That way people can get the information from the nicely-formatted source without simultaneously being lured by a not-as-nicely formatted source.
