I heard that internet mails must use CR+LF and not LF.
If it is true, what happens to my mails created in recipe
which seems to be using LFs since it is in UNIX world.

Are LFs automatically converted to CR+LFs by sendmail?
Or it does not really matter?
Or?

I think whoever told you that was some sort of DOS-moron who thinks that  
DOS/Windows defines "must be".

Explain why that would be true (lf+cr) since UNIX machines were the only  
ones using internet mail for many many moon.
