They don't exist. Here's part of RFC822:
/----
| A message consists of header fields and, optionally, a body.
| The body is simply a sequence of lines containing ASCII charac-
| ters. It is separated from the headers by a null line (i.e., a
| line with nothing preceding the CRLF).
\----
A line always includes the EOL indicator, and the body is a sequence
of lines, so the last line always includes the EOL indicator.
No?
