 * None of the custom markup or links in the altered email notifications works AT
   ALL, they come across as if I’d be looking at them in the text editor. This is
   completely worthless as a “customization”, at least the links should be parsed
   correctly.

 * I figured it out with the help of another user. The following needs to be added
   to functions.php within a child theme:
 * add_filter( ‘new_user_approve_approve_user_message_default’, ‘wpautop($br)’ );
   
   add_filter( ‘new_user_approve_deny_user_message_default’, ‘wpautop($br)’ );
 * This will fix the formatting issues for both the approval and the denial emails.
