[Mailman-Users] Welcome email text file strips carriage returns

[David Law]

Just started using Mailman for a notification mailing list and still in 
the setup phase.

Running Mailman 2.1.18-1 under Virtualmin/Webmin (has a module) on 
Centos 6.4.
Wrote a tutorial how to upgrade when installed using Virtualmin at 
http://stallion-theme.co.uk/how-to-upgrade-mailman-mailing-list-tutorial/

Having a problem with the "Welcome email text file".

When I add something like

line 1
line 2
line 3

It's being converted to

line 1 line 2 line 3

And this

line 1

line 2

line 3

Converted to

line 1
line 2
line 3

Basically stripping out single carriage returns.

Found a way around this for paragraphs (second example) by adding an 
space between paragraphs (space character)

line 1
   < space
line 2
   < space
line 3
   < space

But not for example 1.

Have tried things like \n and \r, extra spaces, tabs, but nothing I've 
tried keeps several lines of text in a block.

Is there a character that's counted as a carriage return?
