Original Cyrus sources. Quoting cyrus-imapd-2.2.12/imap/spool.c:

/* copies the message from fin to fout, massaging accordingly: 
   . newlines are fiddled to \r\n
   . "." terminates 
   . embedded NULs are rejected
   . bare \r are removed
*/
int spool_copy_msg(struct protstream *fin, FILE *fout)
