Thanks for your response Pete, but I'm still confused about how to read "\n" and "\r" and "return" seperately.

I'd like to be able to control how many returns are put into a new list or string from the original string/list after a line or paragraph. Some emails have multiple returns between paragraphs or returns in mid sentence between punctuation.

I'd like to isolate and break down the text into sections, put each section into a list or new string, then rebuild it controlling the spacing between paragraphs. There would also be no broken sentences.

Your example nicely got rid of all the returns in the message, but it dosen't seem to do anything about the broken sentences.

Any suggestions?
Thanks again
