CDONTS email body format changes depending on the content

[jeffcullina]

I am creating an email using CDONTS. It works fine with the exception of the formatting of the body content. Depending on the values and/or data types in the variables called in the body, sometimes the lines will appear bold or italicized, and sometimes they show up as plain text. I am using no formatting so I should not be getting any bold or italicized text. How can I stop this? The code I am using is below.

<%
Dim objMail
Set objMail = Server.CreateObject(&quot;CDONTS.NewMail&quot
objMail.To = &quot;jeffrey.cullina@cdicorp.com&quot;
objMail.From = &quot;jeffrey.cullina@cdicorp.com
objMail.Subject = &quot;Test email&quot;
objMail.Body = &quot;First line&quot; & vbcrlf &_
&quot;COUNT: &quot; & icount & vbcrlf &_
&quot;TEXT&quot; & text
objMail.Send
set objMail = nothing
%>

And your sending this in Plain Text (based on the above code) or HTML format?

It is currently in default (plain text) mode.

The problem might only be related to the Request.Form object rather than referncing a variable defined on the page. I have been trouble shooting for quite some time to figure out exactly where the problem lies, but I am not quite there yet. When a variavle is Null or Empty or is a number I seem to get problems. But it is not consistent.

Using this code, where the variable attempt was never actually created, the email had &quot;First Line&quot; bolded
objMail.Body = &quot;First line&quot; & vbcrlf &_
&quot;COUNT: &quot; & attempt & vbcrlf &_
&quot;TEXT: &quot; & text
