If you compose message in pine it leaves the message as is and does not try
to remove any extra CRLFs or whitespace that might be in the message.

What I understood from reading the RFC 2646 is that you should not try to
remove any extra CRLFs or whitespace when and while the message is being
composed or sent. But you may remove the soft line breaks when you show the
message to the user. I understood that the soft line break is defined as
1*WS CRLF, and if this is followed by more CRLFs or whitespace then you
should leave those extra CRLFs and whitespace as is.
