This is what I see in sendmail logs:
Jul  1 17:06:55 dirac sm-mta[21391]: 461G6tQr021391: collect: relay=localhost, from=<root@dirac.home.woodall.me.uk>, info=Bare carriage return (CR) not allowed, where=body, status=replaced

I don't think bare LF are a problem for sendmail which is why I suspect
they're not being replaced.
