C# MailMessage 字符串格式

Question

I'm trying to get strings to line up in an email. Everything looks fine when I set the Body of the MailMessage but things aren't lined up when I get the email.

        MailMessage email = new MailMessage();
        //...setup from/to/host/port etc
        StringBuilder data = new StringBuilder();

        data.AppendLine(string.Format("{0, -20} {1, -20}", "Id:", "26"));
        data.AppendLine(string.Format("{0, -20} {1, -20}", "Name:", "Jeff"));
        // this looks fine in console
        Console.WriteLine(data.ToString());

        email.Body = data.ToString();

        // this looks fine in console
        Console.WriteLine(email.Body);

When I get this email it's format is not lined up like email.Body text has it.

Answer 1

By default body uses us-ascii encoding

try using

email.BodyEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;

MSDN Reference for BodyEncoding

NOTE: I haven't tested this is just speculation.
