Alan Cox <alan(a)redhat.com>:
RFC822 is problematic because \n and ":" can occur as part
of multibyte
symbols so dumb tools make dumb errors. It works for email only because
SMTP uses some brain damaged "so dont do that" rules.
Not a problem. I'll just specify that the input is expected to be UTF-8 and
screw all that multibyte crap. World's going that direction anyway.
