I would. Well, not exactly btterly; but Eudora started as a *Macintosh*
mail reader and still is maintained on both platforms. So you might as well
find <CR> line endings in your mail folder if you were on a mac68k machine
and were able to mount a hfs volume (afaik not quite here, but some day...).

So please keep in mind that not all the world's an i386 and handle both
<crlf> and <cr>.  =8)
