Why is Xamarin inserting ' ' signs instead of spaces when sending Emails using the Xamarin-CodePudding

I am using the code snippet below from here and getting ' ' signs instead of spaces in my Outlook email app. All other text is correct. I do not think I am doing anything fancy with the strings, but I am using string interpolation.

public async Task SendEmail(string subject, string body, List<string> recipients)
    {
        try
        {
            var message = new EmailMessage
            {
                Subject = @"{StoreName} Needs a Payer",
                Body = @"It needs a separate payer...",
                To = recipients,
                //Cc = ccRecipients,
                //Bcc = bccRecipients
            };
            await Email.ComposeAsync(message);
        }
        catch (FeatureNotSupportedException fbsEx)
        {
            // Email is not supported on this device
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            // Some other exception occurred
        }
    }

This is a .NET Xamarin iOS app. What can I do to make sure spaces are used and not ' ' signs ?

EDIT 1: I tried changing the BodyFormat property and got the following results: Setting the BodyFormat to Text does not change the behavior. Still get signs instead of spaces, BUT if I use a iOS Mail application, the spaces are fine. If I set it to BodyFormat HTML, the Outlook application just crashes, but the iOS Mail application is fine.

This is an outlook issue in iOS app only. to fix it use instead of space and it will work fine with all mail clients.

We can use Uri.EscapeDataString method to encode the string and then can pass in body and subject.
