The trick was in the e-mail protocol, also known as SMTP.

Ed sent his text file as an attachment to e-mail. His mail software
recognized his text file as an text file, and chosen to encode it as
plain/text (which is good, because other encoding bloats the size of the
message.)

Once it is encoded as plain/text, it must have CR+LF line ending.

Then eventually your mailer receives Ed's post. If you are using Solaris,
then its mailer should be wise enough to change the line ending back to
LF only.


Wow, what an amazing world!
