   It's a bug in Aftershock, but it is somewhat related to OpenXP.   
      
   I've set up a test point with OpenXP. I see it does insert CRLF instead of CR   
   only, not only in the message's visible text, but also in the kludge lines.   
      
   Aftershock has issues with:   
      
   - messages without MSGID   
   - messages with CRLF in kludges   
      
   If a message has CRLF in the kludges it is not displayed properly by   
   Aftershock: it shows them in the visible body text and ignores them - it   
   "thinks" it has no MSGID.   
      
   Aftershock doesn't let you reply a message without MSGID when you tap on it   
   from the echo's message list. However, if the previous message you viewed did   
   have MSGID, and then you move (swipe to) one without MSGID (without going back   
   to the list), it "doesn't forget" the previous one's kludges and lets you   
   reply to it (though it's not quoted properly, and the reply has no REPLY   
   kludge)   
      
   If you have no issues replying from Aftershock to some message generated by   
   OpenXP, it's because some node removed the LFs from its kludge lines. (As   
   nowadays messages can take different paths, sometimes it happens, sometimes it   
   doesn't.)
