I have a customer who wants me to put a multi-line Notes portion into the email sent to Goldmine (Content-Type: application/x-gm-impdata in the email and all that).

The email works fine, but the Notes= field doesn't seem to keep anything more than the first line, which makes sense, since \n (newline) is the delimiter or EOL (end of line).

So how do I pass multi-line Notes= field to Goldmine without including the \n that are evaluated?

 
As a programmer, I would use something like WebMagik II to write my own import and do it anyway I wanted.

In the limitations of the GM's import, have you tried replacing line breaks with chr(10) + chr(13), or similar padding techniques so that the input APPEARS to be one line, but in affects your database like multiple lines?
