$email_body = "Dear Client,

Text Title one

Text Title on a new line
";

the final result inside the e-mail shuld be every line inside a new line. right now everything is inside the same line when I perform:

mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers);

Make sure your headers do not contain `Content-Type: text/html` (since I don't see full code) — Funk Forty Niner, Oct 25 '13 at 16:51
After looking through your other questions, found [this one](http://stackoverflow.com/q/19546555/1415724) which contains `$headers .= 'Content-Type: text/HTML; charset=ISO-8859-1' . "\r\n";` - so, if this is related, you will need to use the `\n` character for new lines, or use any of the examples given to you below. — Funk Forty Niner, Oct 25 '13 at 17:03

Just add nl2br PHP function to see the newlines, like this :

mail($to,$email_subject,nl2br($email_body),$headers);

you can use html and your desired inline css for your email template.

$email_body = "<html><body>";

$email_body. = "Dear Client,</br>";

$email_body. = "Text Title one,</br>";

$email_body. = "Text Title on a new line,</br>";

$email_body. = "</body></html>";

mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers);
