in FTN specs, "unbounded" refers to the message body *length*... it has nothing 
to do with line format... in other words, by the specification, there is no 
limit to the message body size... packed messages still have to be separated by 
nulls, though... if you are finding messages that left your system with no LFs 
on each line and they are being seein elsewhere with LFs on each line, then 
yes, you have found a buggy tosser in the line... one that needs to be fixed or 
removed...
