Open Outlook.exe from cmd with body text containing newlines

Question

I'm trying to open Microsoft Outlook 2010 from cmd, but I'd like the body of the email to contain line breaks/newlines.

"C:\Programs\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.EXE" /c ipm.note /m "[email protected]&[email protected]&subject=Test&body=Line 1 \r\n Line 2"

With that outlook 2010 opens correctly with email addresses, the subject but i can't figure out how to automatically insert a newline.

I've tried with /0,
,
, , \r\n, \r\r, $_ but it still write it as simple text.

I know that %20 character puts is a whitespace, but i need a newline.

Is that even possible? No .bat or stuff, just plain command line (windows XP)

Solution

Try this:

"C:\Programs\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.EXE" /c ipm.note /m "[email protected]&[email protected]&subject=Test&body=Line 1 %0D%0ALine 2"

Replace the \r\n with %0D%0A you can also remove the space on the next line by removing space after adding %0D%0A so something like this %0D%0ALine 2
