+.SH cleanup_replace_stray_cr_lf (default: yes)
+Replace each stray <CR> or <LF> character in message
+content with a space character, to prevent outbound SMTP smuggling,
+and to make the evaluation of Postfix\-added DKIM or other signatures
+independent from how a remote mail server handles such characters.
+.PP
+SMTP does not allow such characters unless they are part of a
+<CR><LF> sequence, and different mail systems handle
+such stray characters in an implementation\-dependent manner. Stray
+<CR> or <LF> characters could be used for outbound
+SMTP smuggling, where an attacker uses a Postfix server to send
+message content with a non\-standard End\-of\-DATA sequence that
+triggers inbound SMTP smuggling at a remote SMTP server.
+.PP
+The replacement happens before all other content management,
+and before Postfix may add a DKIM etc. signature; if the signature
+were created first, the replacement could invalidate the signature.
+.PP
+In addition to preventing SMTP smuggling, replacing stray
+<CR> or <LF> characters ensures that the result of
+signature validation by later mail system will not depend on how
+that mail system handles those stray characters in an
+implementation\-dependent manner.
+.PP
+This feature is available in Postfix >= 3.9, 3.8.5, 3.7.10,
+3.6.14, and 3.5.24.

+Reject or restrict input lines from an SMTP client that end in
+<LF> instead of the standard <CR><LF>. Such line
+endings are commonly allowed with UNIX\-based SMTP servers, but they
+violate RFC 5321, and allowing such line endings can make a server
+vulnerable to
+SMTP smuggling.
+.PP
+Specify one of the following values (case does not matter):
+.IP "\fBnormalize\fR"
+Require the standard
+End\-of\-DATA sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>.
+Otherwise, allow command or message content lines ending in the
+non\-standard <LF>, and process them as if the client sent the
+standard <CR><LF>.
+.br
+.br
+This maintains compatibility
+with many legitimate SMTP client applications that send a mix of
+standard and non\-standard line endings, but will fail to receive
+email from client implementations that do not terminate DATA content
+with the standard End\-of\-DATA sequence
+<CR><LF>.<CR><LF>.
+.br
+.br
+Such clients
+can be excluded with smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions.
+.br
+.IP "\fByes\fR"
+Compatibility alias for \fBnormalize\fR.
+.br
+.IP "\fBreject\fR"
+Require the standard End\-of\-DATA
+sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>. Reject a command
+or message content when a line contains bare <LF>, log a "bare
+<LF> received" error, and reply with the SMTP status code in
+$smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_reject_code.
+.br
+.br
+This will reject
+email from SMTP clients that send any non\-standard line endings
+such as web applications, netcat, or load balancer health checks.
+.br
+.br
+This will also reject email from services that use BDAT
+to send MIME text containing a bare newline (RFC 3030 Section 3
+requires canonical MIME format for text message types, defined in
+RFC 2045 Sections 2.7 and 2.8).
+.br
+.br
+Such clients can be
+excluded with smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions (or, in the case
+of BDAT violations, BDAT can be selectively disabled with
+smtpd_discard_ehlo_keyword_address_maps, or globally disabled with
+smtpd_discard_ehlo_keywords).
+.br
+.IP "\fBno\fR (default)"
+Do not require the standard
+End\-of\-DATA
+sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>. Always process
+a bare <LF> as if the client sent <CR><LF>. This
+option is fully backwards compatible, but is not recommended for
+an Internet\-facing SMTP server, because it is vulnerable to  SMTP smuggling.
