Our ISP (or our server) had maintenance problems last week and our email account was affected. If you've sent us any reports within the last week, could you please send them again? We apologize for this inconvenience. Thanks.
This sounds more professional, email sounds ambigious for me, you could you e-mail account and since you are asking them for reports sent during the last week, you don't need to specify the days. It sounds a little off to me.
Hope it helps.

That sentence has an severe antecedent subject. The antecedent is the 1st visual charm of he subject, to which all pronouns, etc. refer. The antecedent is a perfect call or a noun -- Mr. Smith, the gentleman, the female, the canine, Annie, etc. till your sentence replaced into plucked from a paragraph, it has no antecedent, and we don't understand to whom that non-public pronoun "he" refers. This lays the inspiration for the project. we don't understand who's to hold "his" bags, and we don't understand to whom the bags belongs. Does the region of the sentence desire a coolie who will then carry the bags? OR, does "he" desire a coolie so as that he -- the region of the sentence -- can then carry his very own bags? Does the bags belong to the region -- "he" -- or to the coolie??? understand? devoid of an antecedent -- probably the sentence has been pulled out of context -- one is going to conflict to make issues clean. although, that's a probability. The sentence needs to get replaced to something like: "He desires somebody (a coolie) to hold his bags." once you assert/write "somebody" you mean "the two her or him", a individual, yet no one particular, so which you at the instant are not in probability of breaking the relationship between the "He" on the commencing up of the sentence and the possessive pronoun "his" on the tip. understand that something in brackets is like an aside, so, as with "somebody" using "(a coolie)" would not threaten to break the relationship between the pronouns. this way, all of us understand the bags belongs to the region -- "He" -- of the sentence, and that the coolie is to hold the region's bags. If the previous sentence happens to be "James is annoyed and drained." then that's obvious who the region is -- we've an antecedent. ideally, the sentence could be: "James desires somebody (a coolie) to hold his bags." Now the region is extremely clean -- you have an antecedent to which the possessive pronoun "his" refers.

Yes, the tense is wrong. You are talking about last week, so you must use past tense.
We HAD problems...
If you think you SENT the report...
Also, "send it back to us" almost always means that "we" sent it to "you" first and now "you" are returning it. It would be better to say "could you please resend it" (somewhat jargonny) or "could you please send it again" (more formal).

first: we HAD problems....last week....
second: not send back , but: resend or send again.
(send back can be used as a reply to a first sending.that doesn't seem correct here.)
other parts are very good.
Hope it helps.
