OK, I think I am finally observing something strange locally. I can send

mail between two virtual addresses and although the empty lines don't

appear here, I noticed that headers and body inserted by Mahogany have CRLF

while Exim's Received and From headers and end of message newline have just

LF. Messages received by fetchmail, filtered by Mahogany, and filtered

again with procmail have only LF everywhere. Empty lines are LFLF pairs.



I would like to hear some references to standards that specify newline

conventions for various protocols: mailbox, sendmail pipe, c-client data

structures, Mahogany data structures. I would like to hear how is each

protocol tolerant to the other convention. This tolerance is also

interesting in Smtp and Pop3 protocols, which normally use CRLF.



So, I need to fill two tables. First one is for CRLF:

Mailbox: ???

Sendmail pipe: ???

C-client structures: ???

Mahogany structures: prohibited, but how to enforce it?

Smtp: standard

Pop3: standard



Another one is for LF:

Mailbox: ???

Sendmail pipe: ???

C-client structures: ???

Mahogany structures: standard, but not enforced at inputs?

Smtp: ???

Pop3: ???
