Are those MIME messages? If so, then the report is in the "preamble"
and won't be displayed by your mail reader.

That's because HTML renderers ignore the newline characters in the
report.
Both of these issues have the same cause. SA simply prepends the text
to the beginning of the message body, but doesn't do any special
formatting such as creating a new MIME section or converting it to
HTML. As a result the text can be added to the message in an
"incorrect" way.
I've been using the report_headers option for a while now, and I think
that produces better results. It puts the report in a new header and
is nicely formatted for raw viewing.

I haven't checked this at all. How incorrect are the scores you are
checking? If they're off by just a little bit then it is probably
insignificant (fp approximation, display truncation/rounding, etc).
