Answer 1

In case you dont need the message body in html, turn it off:

message.IsBodyHtml = false;

then use e.g:

message.Body = "First line" + Environment.NewLine + 
               "Second line";

but if you need to have it in html for some reason, use the html-tag:

message.Body = "First line 
 Second line";
