In windows, don't forget that you also need to add a carriage return to get the second line: email.text = This is a test\r\nof the emergency \ broadcast system. If your users use windows email clients: Take care to notice how your editor saves files. Most give you the option to save them in Unix style or Windows style. The difference is that a "newline" as displayed in the editor will be saved as "\n" under Unix style and "\r\n" under Windows style. If your editor writes the multi-line email.text property in Unix style (by saving TR.props), you won't get a new line in a windows-based email client because the editor didn't supply the \r. You can either type in the \r or change the way your editor writes files. I spent a very frustrating morning learning this back in my PHP days.
