I don't know what you are asking! Just one LF at the end of the message?
Or is that a typo for "line"? Exim *already* turns CRLF as received over
the network into just LF for messages it handles. As I said before, the
only way it could be producing lines ending in CR is if it was receiving
CRCRLF over the wires. Of course, it could be patched to remove n*CR at
the end of lines if you want to. It's not a trivial patch, though,
because it only keeps a one-character buffer when reading a message and
writing it to the spool file. (It _would_ be trivial just to junk any
CR character you received.) Look in accept.c around lines 295-367.
