Yes, the RFC require header lines to be ended with CR-LF. Lots of spammers
can't get that right. It's certainly legit for a program to choke on lines
that aren't ended properly.

Trash Finder ought to be able to filter on messages without proper line
ends. (It tries to check, anyway; perhaps I did it wrong somewhere). Look at
the "bare LF" setting under "Structure". if you find messages getting
through that check, please send me one of the messages, and I'll look into
it. I catch a lot of junk with that filter.
am i safe deleting on bare LF ?
