This should create a message with multiple <text> elements. See the output from 
step 2 above. It has a single <text> element with all the content. You should 
break it down to multiple <text> elements. The plain text serializer of Axis2 
looks for this specific <text> element when sending plain text messages.

Pay attention to the namespace (http://ws.apache.org/commons/ns/payload) of the 
<text> element too. It's also required.

Thanks,
Hiranya
