Adding line breaks to a text/plain email

Question

I\'m having a problem sending a plain text (not HTML!) email, all my line breaks are being ignored:

->setBody(\'Did you request a pa         


        

Answer 1

You are using literal strings. If you would like to add the line breaks, use double quotes instead of a single quote.

->setBody("Did you request a password reset for your account?\r\n\r\nIf yes, click here:\r\nhttp://www.website.com", 'text/plain');
