We have production systems that have to deal with these sorts of issues. For us the solution was to use a utility I'm afraid, we have pkzip on zos so we zip and unzip as required. Pkzip has the parms to define cr/lf and eof handling.
If you can receive into zos then try locsite wrap (maybe site wrap from the win/linux client also?) Just a thought. -- Julian Levens Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
