[Alpine-info] Can Alpine render CR+LF as one newline rather than two?

[Brad Chamberlain]

Hi Alpine Experts —

Something I've noticed for the past year or two is that mails sent to me by 
Discourse forums end up looking "double-spaced" in alpine, which makes them 
slightly excruciating to read, particularly when code is involved. While 
looking into why this might be yesterday, I believe I've determined that they 
are being formatted with (DOS-style?) CR+LF as the EOL terminator rather than 
just LF, and I'm guessing that alpine renders this combination as two newlines 
rather than one?

I've started a line of inquiry as to whether Discourse can be reconfigured to 
just format the text version of the mail with LF, but in the meantime wanted to 
also see whether there's any way to request alpine to format the text version 
of en email such that carriage returns don't get their own linefeed (or so that 
CR+LF only results in a single linefeed).  Any tips? I didn't see anything in 
the config menu that looked right.

Thanks!

PS – Ironically, if I point alpine to the html version of the message, it 
renders much more nicely...but I'd prefer to stick with the text version given 
the choice...
