Before my DA install, I used sendmail, and e-mail sent in my vBulletin forum looked like this:

Now, with the Exim sendmail installed with DA, they look like this:

Hello,

That's odd. We use vBulletin ouselves (you're looking at it) with exim and emails show up fine. Perhaps there is an html option the was enabled in vB?

If html is enabled, a newline doesn't do anything unless there is a <br>, as all html programmers know. So with html emails you must include them to get a newline to show up correctly. Check and see if html emails are checked, and try turning them off. (This should be a vB issue anyway, becaue exim just sends the data it's sent.

I couldn't find an option like that, but I read up on Exim's docs, and I changed the sendmail line in my php.ini to:

sendmail -t -i -dropcr

and it fixed the problem...
