Answer 1

It relies to the layout-handle "sales_email_order_items" which is called in the transactional email templates. (originally)

For New Order Email: if this layout-handle is'nt overwritten by any layout-update of your instance you can find the table header in the template

/email/order/items.phtml

line 31

For Invoice Email the layout-handle is named "sales_email_order_invoice_items" and you find your table header in the template

/email/order/invoice/items.phtml

line: 34

change the translationkey 'Sku' to whatever you want and insert the new key into a translation-file (for example to: 'email_sku')

Answer 2

If you want it easy you can just translate "Sku" in app/design/adminhtml/default/default/locale/<whateverLanguageYouUse>/locale.csv

The problem is, then "Sku" is translated everywhere, e.g. in the product grid.
