Lines of text sent over SMTP are supposed to be terminated with CRLF,
but so many mailers send them out with just LF that Exim accepts that
too. When it receives a message it turns the end of line marker into a
single LF. If for some reason a message came in with CRCRLF at the end
of each line, one CR would get left and produce the effect described.
