I just wondered, the following:

My MDA may get mails that use LF or CR/LF end of line encodings and deliver them into maildirs.

I couldn't find any information about, whether one should or must convert all into one format, cause AFAIK at least on the IMAP side, CR/LF is always used?

How does this work on the maildir/backend side of dovcot? Can it work with both and simply automatically convert LF into CR/LF?

Dovecot automatically adds CRs where necessary. Even within the same file there can be mixed LF/CRLF lines.
