Since January 2009 I have accumulated over 1000 messages to groups, that 
arrived with improper 0A (UNIX line ends without a preceding 0D) in the body of 
the message. In order to reply to such a message I have to remove them manually 
to avoid rejection by my SMTP server. It's a PITA.

I have tracked the problem down to Yahoo's web based email client. A bug has 
been filed with Yahoo on its internal Bugzilla system. Details of the 
indictment are at <http://macnauchtan.com/editorials/QuotedPrintable.html>.

I doubt that Yahoo is using apache but the issue does involve treatment of HTML 
forms as they are passed to a CGI interface. Does apache ever do anything to 
clean up line ends in forms delivered by a POST request as in a web mail site?

Please, off list replies to address in the link unless useful to other listers.
