you try this:-
TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text.Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br />");

Here textbox2 is my textbox name

Incase you are sending HTML Format emails, then replace "\r\n" by "<br />" in your string.

you should find the output text from a database, whether in the form (&amp;lt; br \&amp;gt;) or (&lt; br \ &gt;) or (<br />).

if you already know the output of the database use the replace function.

example: string description = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode (b2u.Description). Replace ("<br \>", "\ n");
