Hi All,

Is it possible to pass a new line in message body when sending mail from command line.

I'm using it like this: cmd /k C:\"Program Files (x86)"\"Mozilla Thunderbird"\thunderbird.exe -compose "to='test@test.com', subject='sbj', preselectid='id1', body='parameter1 parameter2'"

And what I want to do is when I receive this email to have a parameter2 from body in new line, like this:

parameter1

parameter2

Does anyone know if it is possible and how?

Thanks in Advance

include a carriage return character in your string.

I have tried, but it displays it as normal text in new email window.

What have you tried? These are some guesses:

\n \r %0a %0d

I'm not sure what works in that environment.
