 I am also one, who want this feature :)

 Acceptable.
BTW: may be possible extend the answer to "create new folder"
 question ? When you will save/copy a message to non-existent
(new) folder then pine asks:
"Folder 'the_name' in <'collection'> doesn't exist. Create?"

 IMHO the best solution may be allowing besides "Y" and "N"
additional answers "U", "W", "L", "C"
what means - means "unix" (the  same as "L"), "windows" (the 
default on Windows), "line feed terminated" (the same as "U") 
and respectively "crlf terminated" :)

 At least "W" and "U" are expected !
