CR in this context means carriage returns. Which is actually not the correct term -- they meant LF (line feed) or newlines. But what they *really* meant was for you to send the message as plain text, not HTML. > 'ip a' <CR> > > 1: lo: mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 > link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope > host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 ::1/128 scope host > valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: enp27s0: mtu 1500 qdisc > pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 30:9c:23:b7:48:8c brd > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.1.6/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global > noprefixroute enp27s0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 > fe80::329c:23ff:feb7:488c/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft Your mail software is probably composing your message as HTML, and then generating a plain text part in a very simplistic way. The result is this mess, with all the lines joined together and then re-wrapped. The line breaks from the command output are lost. If you can't convince your mail software to send plain text, then we'll just have to live with whatever you can do.
