Strip textarea breaklines on Email 2 message

(@saxpaolo)

Hello, I need to clean the textarea message of a CF7 form in order to avoid multiple lines in the text.

I use the following function:

function wpcf7_textarea_strip_tags($WPCF7_ContactForm)
{
    //Get current form
    $wpcf7 = WPCF7_ContactForm::get_current();
    // get current SUBMISSION instance
    $submission = WPCF7_Submission::get_instance();
    // Ok go forward
    if ($submission) {
        // get submission data
        $data = $submission->get_posted_data();
        // nothing's here... do nothing...
        if (empty($data)) {
            return;
        }

        $text = isset($data['contact-form-message']) ? $data['contact-form-message'] : "";
        $text = preg_replace('/\s+/', ' ', $text);
        // or $text = preg_replace("/\r|\n/", " ", $text);

        $mail = $wpcf7->prop('mail');
        $mail['body'] = str_replace('[contact-form-message]', $text, $mail['body']);
        // Save the email body
        $wpcf7->set_properties(array(
            "mail" => $mail
        ));
        // return current cf7 instance
        return $wpcf7;
    }
}
add_action("wpcf7_before_send_mail", "wpcf7_textarea_strip_tags");

This code is working for the email message from the “EMAIL 1”, but not from “EMAIL 2” (this one, still contain the message with breaklines).

How can I solve this? I need this as the Email 2 is connected to an external CRM that parse each single lines as field values

Update:
I’ve partially solved the problem updating the function above as follow:

function wpcf7_textarea_strip_tags($WPCF7_ContactForm)
{
    //Get current form
    $wpcf7 = WPCF7_ContactForm::get_current();
    // get current SUBMISSION instance
    $submission = WPCF7_Submission::get_instance();
    // Ok go forward
    if ($submission) {
        // get submission data
        $data = $submission->get_posted_data();
        // nothing's here... do nothing...
        if (empty($data)) {
            return;
        }

        $text = isset($data['contact-form-message']) ? $data['contact-form-message'] : "";
        $text = preg_replace('/\s+/', ' ', trim($text));

        // Mail 1
        $mail_1 = $wpcf7->prop('mail');

        // Mail 2
        $mail_2 = $wpcf7->prop('mail_2');
        $mail_2['body'] = str_replace('[contact-form-message]', $text, $mail_2['body']);
        
        // Save the email body
        $wpcf7->set_properties(array(
            "mail" => $mail_1,
            "mail_2" => $mail_2,
        ));
        // return current cf7 instance
        return $wpcf7;
    }
}
add_action("wpcf7_before_send_mail", "wpcf7_textarea_strip_tags");

Now the EMAIL 2 body text is correctly cleaned (ie. te breakline have been replace with single spaces), but the body of the EMAIL 1 have been cleaned too, but here the breaklines have not been replaced with blank spaces, so there no spaces between words… What I’m doing wrong?
