If what you mean is "has a CRLF embedded in it to begin with", then I think you're correct, because RFC 2822 section 2.2.3 says Each header field is logically a single line of characters comprising the field name, the colon, and the field body. _But_ if you mean "too long for the standard 78 characters per line", though, you're mistaken. Please see RFC 2822 section 2.2.3 for more. Andrew "RFC weenie" Sullivan -- Andrew Sullivan | ajs@crankycanuck.ca Information security isn't a technological problem.
