Hmm. Should this even be an option? Maybe we should _always_ do CRLF. That
does seem to be the technically correct thing to do for SMTP and IMAP.
rfc2822 (smtp) is pretty clear that CRLF is the line ending, and neither
CR nor LF must ever be sent individually. That's true both for headers and
the body of the email. The same goes for rfc3501 (imap).
So I suspect that CRLF should be unconditional.
