Actually no.  As a test I fiddled mews cache to where I had all but
the last 50 messages fetched.  When I then fetched the last 50
messages the first 49 where ok but the last one had not been
stripped.

I have checked the imap server, courier-imap w/ maildir support, and all of 
the files are fine.  So it is either in transmition or conversion.

Yes, mutt and netscape both work fine.  I stepped into Mail/.imap/<server>/inbox 
and stripped the ^M from the file (perl -pi -e "s/\r\n/\n/g" <files>) and the messages 
are now readable in mew.
