unknown carriage-return-character on file import

up to now i imported my email into filemaker via the pop3it-plugin. but that didn't worked anymore since i upgraded to fmp9. so i looked elsewhere and found an extension for thunderbird that exported all my emails as individual text files. so far so good.

when i import those files into an text field, fmp9 displays an unknown character at the end or start of each line. i sorted out it's because of rn. on windows this is valid and should produce no problems. when i change the carriage returns to just r (the macintosh-way) the unknown character symbol disappears.

is there a way to kill those additional n in filemaker? it just looks inacceptable right now.

thanks in advance for any tips.

tsvp.
