Add new line through script in message text in email template

[rad2]

I have a field that has new lines. the new lines are displayed as <br/> instead of displaying in a new line. can this be resolved somehow.

Example - 

backend on form

field_a  = "ATTENDEE1

                  ATTENDEE2

                  ATTENDEE3"

on email_template --> message text field

<br/>ATTENDEE1<br/>ATTENDEE2<br/>ATTENDEE3

Also, this is needed in type meeting invitation.

• Create a new Email Template and Don't copy this Message Text, Type this in Message HTML. It will show in body text.
