 From the support thread [http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-
 and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/strings-containing-new-lines-like-emails-
 content-are-not-translated/ Strings containing new lines like emails
 content are not translated ].

 Rather than using actual line breaks in strings, using \n and keeping
 everything on one line resolves this issue. These strings are most of the
 time the content of the notification emails.

 For example, in [http://trac.buddypress.org/browser/branches/1.2/bp-groups
 /bp-groups-notifications.php#L22 bp-groups-notifications.php:22] :

 Replace :
 {{{
 $message = sprintf( __(
  'Group details for the group "%s" were updated:

         To view the group: %s

         ---------------------
         ', 'buddypress' ), $group->name, $group_link );
 }}}
 By:
 {{{
 $message = sprintf( __(
 'Group details for the group "%s" were updated:\n\nTo view the group:
 %s\n\n---------------------\n', 'buddypress' ), $group->name, $group_link
 );
 }}}
