Just about all of our customers are too damned stupid to be able to use
Notepad. The only way we let them play with filters is through
sqwebmail, and that's beyond most of them. Hell, it's beyond most of
our employees, who are far more techy than our customers. There are times
even I have problems puzzling out some of the more obscure features.
If you have users who are capable of understanding raw maildrop syntax
and editing mailfilters by hand then you have users who are intelligent
enough to understand about having to deal with end-of-line conventions.
Really. If they are too stupid to understand about EOL problems then
they should never be let near the raw filter files. If they understand
all the complexities of filter files then EOL problems ought to be trivial
to them.
Really, really, really, really. If you understand regexps then you ought
to understand EOL conventions.
