Mutt shouldn't go converting what you tell it to feed the MTA (mutt 
trusts the user not to tell it to do something silly). Unfortunately, 
email is NOT a reliable file transfer mechanism, especially if you're 
looking to preserve something like line endings.

The best way to send a DOS file, if it needs to *stay* a DOS file, is 
to compress it (e.g. to zip it) and send the compressed form. When it 
is decompressed, it will return to its original DOS form.
