Some messages have broken Macintosh newlines (i.e. ^M). WIBNI there
was a function similar to article-remove-cr which replaced ^M with ^J
instead of deleting them?

I agree. CR should be deleted only if it is followed by LF;
otherwise, it should be turned into LF itself. The conversion
algorithm is still relatively simple:
Step 1: CRLF -> LF
Step 2: CR -> LF
