The reason we are seeing this behavior for 2 antivirus:  Both AVG and
Avast antivirus are owned and operated by the same company - Avast
acquired AVG in 2016.

I believe both platforms are using the same cloud proxy system - with
the common issue that said cloud proxy is RFC ignorant with regards to
how line endings in SMTP are supposed to work.

As per RFC 5321:

   The custom of accepting lines ending only in <LF>, as a concession to
   non-conforming behavior on the part of some UNIX systems, has proven
   to cause more interoperability problems than it solves, and SMTP
   server systems MUST NOT do this, even in the name of improved
   robustness.  In particular, the sequence "<LF>.<LF>" (bare line
   feeds, without carriage returns) MUST NOT be treated as equivalent to
   <CRLF>.<CRLF> as the end of mail data indication.
