The first part of my message is correctly single spaced but then I put in a list and it automatically double spaced the items. I want single spacing. There should be something in the formatting to allow single or double spacing.

I am not sure this will fix the list thing (though my lists have been perfectly well behaved) but it will remove the gratuitous line feed after a paragraph.
