I found that bugtraq mailing list dropped me because of the 2045 checking. Presumably one of the thousands of people who post to the list uses a bad mailer, so I bounced it, so the list probed me to check, and apparently the probe failed. I don't know why it would; I thought they were running a straightforward ezmlm setup.

I'm currently running courier with 2045 checking commented out, as is described somewhere in the documentation. I wouldn't mind having that be an obscure config file option somewhere instead of requiring a special compile. I understand the reasoning behind anal checking, but I also need to receive mail from lists that have bad software posting to them.
