Does this (the "Unix" EOL mode-line indicator and the ^M characters)
happen to you in "emacs -Q"?  (They shouldn't.)  If in "emacs -Q" the
problem goes away, something in your .emacs init file causes this.

It's rather what you should NOT write in the init file, I think.
Emacs by default preserves the EOL format of existing files, so it
should set EOL to -dos when it visits a file automatically.
