Try

iv><!-- Dear --> $EMAIL_FIRST_NAME $EMAIL_LAST_NAME</div>

2. Make sure Admin - Confiiguration - Email Options - Use MIME HTML When Sending Emails is set to True. Also make sure the customer you're sending email to have selected HTML rather than text.

3. Zencart doesn't offer that functionality in the current version. There are some add-ons that allow you to use external emailing programs.
