The following perl script, providing it is ran on the Windows platform, will convert all mail files in-place from unix EOL to windows EOLs.
Save the script as unix2dos.pl, run unix2dos.pl <directory> and all files will be converted recursively.

$| = 1;
$directory = shift @ARGV;
$directory = '.' unless $directory;
conv($directory);
sub conv
{
   my $dir = shift;
   opendir DIRHANDLE, $dir;
   foreach my $file (readdir DIRHANDLE)
   {
      next if ($file =~ /^\./);
      next if ($file =~ /\.settings$/); #skipping settings, info, dst, CGP can handle them.
      next if ($file =~ /\.info$/);     #only mail files must be converted, others are optional.
      next if ($file =~ /\.dst$/);
      $file = "$dir/$file";
      if (-d $file)
      {
         conv($file);
      }
      else
      {
         print "Convert: $file";
         open(INPUT, "<$file");
         my @lines = <INPUT>;
         close INPUT;
         open(OUTPUT, ">$file");
         print OUTPUT $_ foreach(@lines);
         close OUTPUT;
      }
   }
   closedir DIRHANDLE;
}

The only way I've ever moved files (not cgate) from Unix -> Windows or Windows -> Unix is by using FTP, but I understand there are utilities available that will also do the conversion for you.

the server you are moving from, anyone know if this really is the case?

It's the case when moving from UNIX -> UNIX or Windows -> Windows; the
problem in your case is migrating the line endings to fit the new server
platform. I've seen people suggest that if you use FTP to transfer the
CommuniGate directory that will fix any line ending problems, but I don't
have any personal experience with that.
