Use fixcrio. Not sure which package it is in.

There is not. Also, applying the requested fix opens up your
mailserver to all kinds of message corruption. There is a reason qmail
doesn't accept these broken messages by default, and that reason is
that rejecting those messages prevents corruption. Messages with
incorrect line-endings could get severely corrupted in the
transmission.

Basically, my advice is to tell them to fix their software. That's
what we do, and everybody has done that, so far.
