Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Mark Peek]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/125.2 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/125.8
Build Identifier: 0.7+

The addition of the X-Account-Key header for the global inbox feature adds a CRLF to the end of the 
line. All other lines in the mbox file are terminated with just a LF. This can cause compatibility problems 
with other programs that read mbox files.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download mail into a global inbox enabled system.
2. Look at the Inbox file in an editor (vi or emacs will do)
3. Notice that the X-Account-Key line contains a "^M" 
Actual Results:  
The Inbox showed this:

From - Mon Jul  5 09:11:34 2004
X-Account-Key: account3^M
X-UIDL: 40859b052c70fedb


Expected Results:  
When it should have had this:

From - Mon Jul  5 09:11:34 2004
X-Account-Key: account3
X-UIDL: 40859b052c70fedb
