How to change font and colour in mail sent from Unix

Dear All,

We have following code to send mails from unix to users. We want to see few sentences of mail in bold font or to hightlight few lines in different colours. Could you please let me know how can we do it in function construct_body.

=======================================================
function process_maillist
{
MAILLIST=$DSPS_SAVE/mail_list.dat
PID=$$
construct_body > REGION${PID}.dat $1
echo $MAILLIST
for email in $(cat $DSPS_SAVE/mail_list.dat)
do
echo $email
mailx -s "$1 Files Not Refreshed" $email < REGION${PID}.dat
done
rm -f REGION${PID}.dat
}

function construct_body
{
echo "Dear All,\n"
echo "Due to technical issues, the files for the $1 market(s) were not refreshed into $ORASID during last nights batch pr
ocessing. The failure will affect the following information:\n"

echo "APPLICATION:"
echo " - Item/SKU Information: On-hand, demand-to-date, customer information, parameter changes."
echo " - Customer Orders"
echo " - In-transits"
echo " - Shipment history\n"
echo "BUSINESS OBJECTS:"
echo " - Business Objects Demand and Supply Reports.\n"
echo "SUPPLY CHAIN DATA WAREHOUSE:"
echo " - Reports and Report Writer Reports\n"
echo "EXCESS AND OBSOLETE (E&O) Website."

echo "The batch process continued despite the failure with the previous days data. Please note that the discrepancies and
act accordingly."

echo "\n $1 Technical team; please advice. \n\nThanks,\nDSP On-Call Support"
}

=======================================================
THANKS

mlmmj-send(1)						      General Commands Manual						     mlmmj-send(1)

NAME

       mlmmj-send - send mail to a mailinglist or similar

SYNOPSIS

       mlmmj-send [-L /path/to/list | -l listctrl] -m /path/to/mail [-a] [-D] [-F] [-h] [-o] [-r] [-R] [-s] [-T] [-V]

       -a: Don't archive the mail

       -D: Don't delete the mail after it's sent

       -F: What to use as MAIL FROM:

       -h: This help

       -l: List control variable.

       -L: Full path to list directory

       -m: Full path to mail file

       -o: Address to omit from distribution (normal mail only)

       -r: Relayhost IP address (defaults to 127.0.0.1)

       -R: What to use as Reply-To: header

       -s: Subscribers file name

       -T: What to use as RCPT TO:

       -V: Print version

DESCRIPTION

       This binary is used to send all kinds of mail to mlmmj managed mailinglists, but can potentially be used standalone for sending mails.

       The only option that is not self explanatory is the -l list control option:

	      '1' means 'send a single mail'

	      This is used together with -F and -T to send one mail to one recipient.

	      '2' means 'mail to moderators'

	      Used for sending mails to the moderators of a list.

	      '3' means 'resend failed list mail'

	      '4' means 'send to file with recipients'

	      '5' means 'bounceprobe'

	      '6' means 'single listmail to single recipient'

BUGS

       This  manual page is very scarce documentation of the mlmmj-send binary. The reason for this is that it's really not supposed to be used by
       any human, but only supposed to be invoked from other mlmmj binaries. So in case more documentation is needed, please read the source.
