Greetings to all, world wide.

I am sending an email from Filemaker to an embedded device that has a 6 line
LCD display that is approximately 30 characters wide.

When I generate the email using the send mail step(& default email client)
and format the carriage returns (new line) using the pipe character, the LCD
display does not recognize the pipe character and just continues the text
until it runs out of width on the screen and then it wraps the text to the
new line. I need the new lines to be where I want them to make it more
readable and have no ambiguity.

I am sending it as plain text and any other device (cell phone, desktop MS
Outlook) receives it and displays it correctly.


There is a third party service provider that receives the email and then
forwards it on to the embedded device and they have been little help.

The device is capable of starting a new line when told as other functions it
performs demonstrate this.

There must be another character besides the pipe character that allows this.

Has anyone run into this?
