The reason is backward compability. RFC2543, and maybe some older versions of bis, DID allow the use of CR or LF by themselves. That has been changed now (don't remember exactly in which bis version it was changed), and the use of CRLF is a MUST. But, to be able to communicate with older implementations a node MUST be able also to receive CR or LF by themselves.
