[ale] Odd WTF question

[Drifter]

Recently wrote a longish letter to the president of my Condo Assoc. and
copied my wife, who uses a Mac.

As in this note, I placed an extra <Return> at the end of each paragraph.

But when the email appeared on her Mac screen, those extra LFs had been 
stripped out. The paragraphs appeared to have been run together and the 
only clue about the beginning of a new paragraph was the remaining CR at 
the end of the last line.

When I hit the <Enter> key on this keyboard, I am assuming it sends both 
CR and LF and another tap on the <Enter> key sends the second LF.  Am I 
wrong in that assumption? Is the Mac stripping out the extra LFs? or is 
something else between the KMail editor and my ISP responsible?

For the record, I use KMail for all routine emails.
