But you can't be sure that there are not CR's in the message. I've seen many of them. Common pitfall is someone inserting mail into qmail using CRLF which will be delivered this way into the mailbox (e.g. by PHP skripts). >> causing invalid IMAP transactions. > >There is nothing invalid about it.

Nevertheless I've seen some clients (especially M$ Outlook) getting heavily confused if there are CRLF in the message store. Maybe it's better to get qmail-queue fixed instead (haha).
