Transmit CR+LF instead of LF as line terminator.  This fixes a problem
where it hangs when a news server to connect to is strict with the
NNTP standard.

Use ${ECHO_CMD} instead of ${ECHO} where you mean the echo command;   the ECHO
macro is set to "echo" by default, but it is set to "true" if   make(1) is
invoked with the -s option while ECHO_CMD is always set to   the echo command.
