Thank you Ben. Using either str_replace("\n", "", $string); or str_replace("\r", "", $string); solves the problem. My guess is that when I submit the data there is both the \r and the \n in there (for there showed 2 white space characters in between the broken text lines). My guess is that the server converts all \r's into \n's, and for this reason when a piece of mail goes out it has two breaks instead of one.
Best Regards, and thank you for the help,

What I really don't understand is why there are any line breaks at all, because the trim is supposed to take out all \r & \n 's. Is there another type of line break?
trim() actually only strips whitespace (including \r and \n) from the beginning and ending of strings. See http://www.php.net/trim for more information.
If you want to completely remove line breaks from your string, use str_replace() to do something like: str_replace("\n", "", $string); and str_replace("\r", "", $string); See http://www.php.net/str-replace
Finally, have you tried echoing $body just before the message is sent so that you can see exactly what is being sent to the mail() function?
