I have a script that outputs the following (contrived) string which is
delivered to Qmail by piping the output through 'mail':

echo "Line 1\r\nLine 2\r\nLine 3"

When you look at the message in Outlook 2000 it looks like this, with
everything on the same line.

Line 1 Line 2 Line 3

If I change the script to use just one LF instead of CRLF:

echo "Line 4\nLine 5\nLine 6"

The message is shown as I would expect:

Line 4
Line 5
Line 6

Outlook Express shows both messages the same way, with each line on a
separate line.

I don't see the same behavior on a server running Sendmail and UW-IMAP.

Can someone explain what's going on?

Lance
