User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.5; ja-JP-mac; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2

From recent Nightly build on MacOS X, line delimiter characters of saved messages on Mac OS X are not correct (currently CRLF. Should be LF). Nightly on Jul 22 is OK, buf nightly Aug 5 and Aug 17 is broken.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. choose one mail message
2. save it as text file

Actual Results:  
line delimiters are CRLF

Expected Results:  
should be LF

Though it's not major bug, no easy workaround exists.

A closer regression window would be nice.

Possibly from bug 498978?

is that mail message local or in IMAP folder.

debugging a 'save as' of local or IMAP doesn't hit that code.

it is a mail message local. 

Cheers.

Bug 508597 is relevant? (opened on 2009/8/05)

What kind of file do you mean by "text file"?
File with file extension of ".txt" for which file type of "Text File" is selected at file picker dialog?
What is your exact operation at step 2?
  "Save As"
  At file picker dialog, what file type did you select?
  At file picker dialog, what file extension did you provide in file name?

(1) old shredder
  type: all files
  extension: txt

(2) new shredder
  type: mail file
  extension: txt

Maybe related to Bug 508597

Does newline of [CRLF] on Mac OS X occur even when next is requested upon "Save As"?
  type: text file
  extension: txt

Comment 7

[Seiji Kaneko]

This combination works.

Type: text file
Extension: txt
Line delimiter LF
on Mac OS X 10.5.8.

Kaneko san, is your bug for "CRLF in .eml file on Mac OS X"? (Bug 503271)
Or for "Saved as .eml when user wants to save in text(or html)"? (Bug 508597)
