+pinkunicorn Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 As of a couple of days ago, all emails I get about various types of logs that I have notifications for have extra superfluous newlines between every line (Logged by, Log type, Date, etc) which means that all the interesting information (i.e. the actual log) is now outside a typical laptop screen. Please revert back to the old look. Mac OS 10.14.5 Mail.app 12.4 (3445.104.11) (I include a screenshot of a recent broken log as well as an older correct one.) 4 3 Quote Link to comment
+Goldenwattle Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I noticed that. I just thought something had gone wrong with the programming, and hoped the bug was being fixed. If it has been done on purpose...surely not ...why. 2 Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Yes. Very annoying. 3 Quote Link to comment
+HHL Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Yes, these additional, superfluous lines are pretty annoying. Hans Quote Link to comment
+thebruce0 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Yep, chiming in confirming the strangeness. Quote Link to comment
+MartyBartfast Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Seeing the same, and I don't like it either. Quote Link to comment
+K13 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Another example of a 'fix' for a non-existent problem. I really wish the developers would work on the myriad of problems instead of changing things like this. 1 Quote Link to comment
Frau Potter Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Thanks for reporting this. We have notified the engineering team and hope for a fix soon. 3 1 Quote Link to comment
+thebruce0 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Kind of wondering what code update would have even made double-spaced text in the notification emails, apart from explicitly adding that... odd Quote Link to comment

It can not understand the new linefeed at all. This kind of things happens normally when CR+LF is converted to LF+LF and LF back to CR+LF etc. Quote Link to comment

It means someone decided to change how new lines are formed. Still can't see someone changing the new line to two of the same code. There are different standards for different platforms, but LF is explicit everywhere; some platforms might treat CR as a LF. But two LF's? I can technically understand why it could happen, just not what code update (intentional change) would have produced this... Quote Link to comment
+-KROP- Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I came here to report this same issue. Glad it's already being looked into! Quote Link to comment

Frau Potter Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 The emails should now be fixed. You can return to your regularly scheduled program. :) 3 2 Quote Link to comment
