Paste EXCEL tables into Thunderbird e-mails

If I copy an Excel table and paste it into an e-mail I am composing, it shows up beautifully as a table in the draft e-mail, but anyone receiving the e-mail on an iPad or iPhone sees gibberish.

Same result if I paste the table into Word first, and then into the e-mail being composed.

If I paste into Notepad, and then into the e-mail, all the formatting is lost

If I save the table into a pdf file, "copy" the image from the pdf, and paste it into the e-mail it shows up as text, but some text gets dropped and line endings get messed up, and I cannot completely fix them - Thunderbird RTF editor cannot seem to remove spurious line endings (and it is far too much work anyway).

Are there any workarounds?

Perhaps try an office program without the inherent limitations of Microsoft Office, like LibreOffice. Many of the weird issues stem from Office still using ANSI text internally while the rest of the world moved on when they made UNICODE the default in XP.
