Send formatted list of tuples as body of an email

Send formatted list of tuples as body of an email

Maybe this has been asked already, but I can't find it, and I need help. I
have a list of tuple pairs:
mylist = [('name1', 'name2'), ('name3', 'name4'), ('name5','name6')]
The list is generated from a MySQL database and can be of any length. It
is possible that some of the names are the same. It is not absolutely
necessary that the data type be a list of tuples. That's just what made
the most sense to me. It can be a list of lists, tuple of tuples, etc. A
dictionary doesn't make sense to me, because, as previously stated, any of
the names can be the same. This is in python using django, which can't be
changed.
Anyway, I want to send an email with the contents of Mylist as the body. I
want to format it, though, so that it looks in the body of the email like
this:
name1, name2
name3, name4
name5, name6
In other words, I want it to look like normal text you would see in an
email body. Initially, my thinking was that I had to use a function and
generate a variable for each line of output. There may be a way to get
this done without creating new variables for each newline, but I can't
figure it out. To be honest, I haven't figured it out at all. I've tried
for loops, while loops, recursive functions, etc. No luck.
This is for work, and I could really use some help. Thanks
