Unfortunately, the Comments get cut off invariably after the first carriage return. I've tried being sure to send the file as text (and then binary, which really messed things up.) I've also surrounded the [comments] variable with [convertchars], which made no difference. I used [formvariables] to determine that the variable is being sent from the form to the results template properly...it's just not carrying through to the sendmail.Any idea why this might be happening?Thanks for any input.
