Hi,

This has possibly been asked before, but I cannot
find it in the mail archieve.

It seems as there are missing some Carriage Returns
after some of the lines in a mail. My Outlook users
are getting strange looking mails.

Is this a configuration options that I simply hasn't
found?

Now I've found out that this occurs when HTML-mails or mails with attachments are fetchPOP'ed. Each line in a mail should be terminated with a CR LF (according to RFC2821), but in some cases these are only terminated by a LF.

The mail-server (James 2.1.2) is running on a Linux platform.

Now I have a patch that fixes the problem. I don't know if it's the right place to fix the problem, but it works.

In the ExtraDotOutputStream class (package org.apache.james.util)
the method "write" are patched as follows:

    public void write(int b) throws IOException {
//        out.write(b);                   // Remove this line

switch (b) {
case '.':
out.write(b); // Add this line
if (countLast0A0D == 2) {
// add extra dot
out.write('.');
}
countLast0A0D = 0;
break;
case '\r':
out.write(b); // Add this line
countLast0A0D = 1;
break;
case '\n':
if (countLast0A0D == 1) {
out.write(b); // Add this line
countLast0A0D = 2;
} else {
out.write('\r'); // Add this line


                    out.write(b);
                    countLast0A0D = 0;
                }
                break;
            default:
                out.write(b);             // Add this line
                // we're  no longer at the start of a line
                countLast0A0D = 0;
                break;
        }
    }
