I suggest to you, for debugging purposes, that you pipe the output of your script to a file (or to standard out) instead of to the sendmail command.
Do this for both cases (with your awk or sed commands and without) and compare the two outputs.
Post back your results, and do not forgot to use code tags around your code and input/output text.
You will have a much easier time to debug if you look at the results of your script and compare the working and not working results, side by side, instead of just sending the output to sendmail.
That is what I would do.....
