Hi Ragi,

Thanks for the report.

I've updated the version in the plugin so it shows 1.01 instead of 1.00.

For the HTML issue, are you just entering the content or copying and pasting HTML from somewhere else? And when you view-source on Rogers Yahoo Mail has it received the same HTML content as you entered?

Also note that you can press shift-enter in tinyMCE to enter a line-break instead of a new paragraph.

I entered the following content as a test (first selecting and erasing all the default content in the create message form):
This is a test message (press enter)

And a second paragraph (press enter)

And 3 lines one after another(shift-enter)
line 2 (shift-enter)
line 3 (just enter)

And a closing paragraph

#unsubscribe_url#


I clicked on the TinyMCE HTML button and it showed this:
<p>This is a test message (press enter)</p>
<p>And a second paragraph (press enter)</p>
<p>And 3 lines one after another(shift-enter)<br />line 2 (shift-enter)<br />line 3 (just enter)</p>
<p>And a closing paragraph</p>
<p>#unsubscribe_url#</p>


And sent it to my gmail account, confirmed it looked as above, and clicked "Show Original" to see the email source which was as follows:
Content-Type: text/html;
charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

<p>This is a test message (press enter)</p>
<p>And a second paragraph (press enter)</p>
<p>And 3 lines one after another(shift-enter)<br />line 2
(shift-enter)<br />line 3=C2=A0(just enter)</p>
<p>And a closing paragraph</p>

Which, ignoring the email encoding (=3D, etc) looks the same.

Do you want to try the same test and see what results you're getting?

If it's not something technical to do with the mailing, it could be the default CSS Rogers Yahoo mail applies to HTML messages.

Let me know what you find out, thanks!

Dave: This is a bit confusing. Gmail works fine, Rogers Yahoo doesn't, OpenSRS Webmail 5.5 doesn't. I don't have a Hotmail account, so I can't try it there.

Hi Ragi,

And to confirm, is the issue that you can't insert extra line-breaks in the wysiwyg, or that they don't show up in rogers yahoo mail, or both?

Are the messages showing up except for the linebreaks?
