You could maybe try doing your mail in HTML format. Here is a small sample program.




report zrich_0002.

data: maildata   like sodocchgi1.
data: mailtxt    like solisti1 occurs 10 with header line.
data: mailrec    like somlrec90 occurs 0  with header line.

start-of-selection.

  clear:    maildata, mailtxt,  mailrec.
  refresh:  mailtxt, mailrec.

  perform build_text_message.
  perform build_receivers.
  perform send_mail_nodialog..

************************************************************************
*      Form  BUILD_TEXT_MESSAGE
************************************************************************
form build_text_message.


  maildata-obj_name = 'TEST'.
  maildata-obj_descr = 'Test Subject'.


  mailtxt  = '<html>'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '<head>'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '<title>Untitled Document</title>'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = 'charset=iso-8859-1">'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '</head>'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '<body>'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '<div align="center"><em><font' .
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = 'color="#0000FF" size="+7" face="Arial,'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = 'Helvetica, sans-serif">THIS'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '  IS A TEST </font></em><font' .
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = 'color="#0000FF" size="+7" face="Arial,'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = 'Helvetica, sans-serif"></font>'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '</div>'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '</body>'.
  append mailtxt.
  mailtxt  = '</html>'.
  append mailtxt.

endform.

************************************************************************
*      Form  BUILD_RECEIVERS
************************************************************************
form build_receivers.

*  mailrec-receiver = 'someone@somewhere.com'.
  mailrec-rec_type  = 'U'.
  append mailrec.

endform.

            put_in_outbox              = 'X'
       tables
            object_header              = mailtxt
            object_content             = mailtxt
            receivers                  = mailrec
       exceptions
            too_many_receivers         = 1

  endif.

endform.

hi rich,

your code is helpful for me, but the problem is how to insert blank lines between the para's. How to differentiate the different paragraphs.
