Symptoms
In Microsoft Outlook, you create a new plain text formatted post containing line breaks. Outlook removes the line breaks and displays the message. However, the posts do not display any indication that this has occurred, other than the change in formatting. The information bar message about extra line breaks does not appear, either in the Preview pane or when you read the post. This processing appears to happen when the message is initially posted.
Note
E-mail message items display the information bar as expected when the line breaks are removed.
Cause
By default, the Auto Remove Line Breaks feature in Outlook is enabled. This causes the line breaks to be removed. Any two or more successive line breaks are not removed.
Workaround
Use one of the following methods to work around this behavior.
Note
If you edit the existing post and you save the changes before you use one of the following methods, the line breaks are lost and can only be replaced manually.
Method 1 - Disable the feature that removes extra line breaks
This method disables the feature for all plain text items. To do this, follow these steps:
For Outlook 2010 and later versions:
- Open Outlook.
- On the File tab, select Options.

- In the Message format section, clear the Remove extra line breaks in plain text messages check box.
- Select OK.
For Outlook 2007 or earlier versions:

- On the Tools menu, select Options.
- On the Preferences tab, select the E-mail Options button.
- Clear the Remove extra line breaks in plain text messages check box.
