RFC822 and folding inside a quoted-string.

1991-05-30 13:58:31
Just an apropos: We're having a small argument whether it is legal
to fold a line inside a quoted-string. I'd say that this is not
legal. First: I regard a quoted-string as a single lexical symbol,
secondly, it is not legal with an CR inside a quoted-string.

The problem is that RFC822 shows an example of folding inside a quoted
string (search for `To:  "Joe &').

I think that the example should be removed from RFC822.
