Subject: Re:  SpamAssassin doesn't follow RFCs 822, 2045, and 2046

The reason I jumped in on this one is because Exim has gone through a lot
of problems in this area, particularly because of software that uses CRLF
in a situation where you would expect LF only (e.g. sendmail -t) or which
uses LF only where you would expect CRLF (e.g. various kinds of SMTP).

There have also been amusing problems with ClamAV which also has to cope
with line endings being CRLF or LF depending on how the message is fed to
it - some months ago I had to fix one of the new upstream virus signatures
because it assumed CRLF but in my environment the message had been
converted to LF only.

The current Exim line ending DWIM rules are documented at
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.40/doc/html/spec_44.html#SECT44.1
It's a perpetual problem area so this might not be the best solution.

Tony.
