Applied, thanks!
[1/1] fix #7814: send-mail: normalize LF line endings to CRLF endings
commit: 21bb4956bdbc6ebd4d2bd0ec020f4ff5835d28fc
FYI, I folded in a few changes and reworded the commit message:
- Moved both line ending loops to a shared helper normalize_line_endings().
- Filenames use char::is_control() to strip C1 control chars too.
- Custom headers get CR stripped together with LF again, so the injection
guard does not rely on later normalization.
- I dropped the RFC 2047 reference, as that section does not require
normalized line endings.
Note that #7814 itself is acutally about SMTP targets, which do not use
sendmail. There, lettre sends the forwarded message as is and dot-stuffs
only lines that follow a CRLF. So bare LFs reached the relay, and a line
with just a dot was not escaped. I added a follow-up that normalizes the
message with the new helper, which keeps its MIME encodings intact. See
7668648f ("fix #7814: notify: smtp: normalize forwarded mail line endings")
