I've run across this before.  A message was being rejected because it
contained a header quoted *in the body of the email* which happened to
have an LF in the line!

So, firstly, this LF was not at the end of a line, yet qmail complained
anyhow.  And second, if these qmail folks knew a damn about "standards"
why are they rejecting a message that THEY consider can NEVER be delivered
with a 451 error which means the error is TEMPORARY, not permanent?

I have little respect for Qmail, as you can tell.
