Last week, I found some code on-line that allows me to send email via SMTP from my VB 6.0 application. I had to add the Winsock control to the project and add the code that performs the SendData requests and waits for the appropriate replies. The sending of the email seems to be working fine. But I am getting weird text wrapping within my first paragraph. I'm not sure why.
For the text of the e-mail, I am using a String variable. I build it up dynamically, based on certain things that I want to insert into the e-mail, such as the name of a file and some simple identifier numbers from our app. I have a first paragaph, then I append a couple of control / line feed characters to the string, followed by the second paragraph. All of this is one String variable and then I send that as the text of the e-mail.
When the e-mail is sent, the text is wrapping in the first paragraph at places I do not expect, not naturally. The first paragraph has two sentences and around 250 characters. The second paragraph, which has two sentences and around 150 characters, wraps naturally, as you would expect. Any ideas what might be wrong or how I can trouble-shoot?
