I've had to deal with this issue when moving such a message between accounts, in my case from a UW-IMAP server using mbx to a Cyrus 2.3 server. While forwarding the message usually works, it's inelegant. Oddly, I've found that simply copying it to temporary folder on the UW-IMAP server before copying it to Cyrus is often all that's needed for the operation to be successful. YMMV.

Bare newlines problem
Hello,
When I move a message to another mailbox, I get a warning about bare
newlines. How can I remove these bare newlines?
It's a big message with foto's, 3.5 MB. I am not sure this warning is
correct.
I allready tried a perl-script of Joseph Brennan what I found in this
list, but it did not change the message (checked with diff).

while() {
# The \000 character (NUL) is not allowed
if ($line =~ s/\000//g) {
print STDERR WARNING: Removing NUL\n;
}
# Change CRLF or bare CR to LF
$endcr = $midcr = 0;
$endcr++ if ($line =~ s/\015$//g); # \n already there
$midcr++ if ($line =~ s/\015/\n/g); # add \n
if ($endcr || $midcr) {
print STDERR WARNING: Correcting CR characters\n;
}
print;
}

Bare newlines problem
Hi, I'm doing a large import of mail from Outlook and into Cyrus. My problem is with emails that contain bare newlines. Cyrus rejects these mails (as it probably should). What I am wondering about, is if anyone has made a patch so that cyrus may fix the mail or at least let it pass into the messagestore ?

Fedora Core 3 included a Cyrus version with a nobarenewlines patch.
I've included it here so that the next person who comes by should be
able to use it:

Bare newlines problem
Hi all, I have a problem with moving mails from Netscape to a Cyrus (1.5.19) mail server. There a several mails which are in wrong format and Cyrus complains about bare newlines. Is it possible to deactivate this check? I know that Cyrus is right to complain about these mails, but I need them to move to my new server. ;-) Thanks, Roland
