Given you have no control over the html rendering in email browsers,
and that some don't have any at all, I think it would be safest to
send an URL to website that implements the tabs. Then you only need
deal with the major browsers which are much more likely to be
compliant than mailreaders.
Since the tab character means nothing in the context of
HTML, a compliant browser should completely ignore it
(or more probably, compact it down to a single 'white space'
character).
Indents in HTML are better done using styles, or the PRE
element (using spaces for separation). Alignment can be
better achieved with an HTML TABLE.
