如何在ASP.Net应用程序作为电子邮件发送的短信中包含换行符？

Question

I have an ASP.Net Application that sends text messages to mobile phones. It does this by sending an email. For instance, if your phone number is 555-555-5555 and your wireless carrier is Verizon, you can send an email to 5555555555@vtext.com and it will show up as a text message.

I want to be able to include a newline in the body of the message. How do I do this? Also please note that my ASP.Net program gets the message from a database (MS SQL Server) so what I really need to know is what characters to include in the message body when I store it in my database.

I already tried \\n but it just showed up in the text message as \\n

Answer 1

You need to use Environment.NewLine instead of \\n

That has worked for me in the past, so it's the first thing I'd try if I were you.

Answer 2

Assuming you are building the bodies yourself prior to storage, the easiest way is to just use stringbuilder when building your strings and us .AppendLine(stuff); for each line

you can also use Environment.NewLine

Answer 3

I am not sure if you need just a line feed, or a carriage return/line feed, so try using CHAR , like this:

insert into Messages
(PhoneNo, Message)
values
('123-555-1234', 'line 1' + char(13) + char(10) + 'line 2')

Answer 4

I believe for SMS a linefeed is sufficient. From C#, you can use (char)10 .
