[Dovecot] Bad_MIME on vacation messages

Yep, if I sent an email locally to the account, the vacation doesn't contain
CRLF's, it's only when the emails are sent externally that they have them. I
have a message sitting in the qmail queue which is destined for an external
email address, and it has CRLF's.
