sending text to outlook express

I can send (email_address, subject,text) to outlook express.
What I can't do is retain the line breaks. Could anyone please
tell me how to do that?

Sending "\r\n" doesn't force line breaks.

Sending rtf doesn't work because outlook express cannot deal with rtf.

I would prefer to send ASCII across.

The strange thing is that when I am in outlook express I can
force line breaks with TRL m, but if I send (char)13 across
instead of "\r\n" no line breaks are forced.

Patrick.

How about HTML?
Replace your line breaks with <BR> HTML tags....

Then I get <BR> all over the place, but no line breaks.
I need to solve this problem, any other suggestions?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
