Agreed. But IMO, the list processor software is a recipient as far as
the internet mail system is concerned. (You get a final delivery DSN
when the message is delivered to the mailing list processor.)
okay, I'll grant that. but if the list processor is going to alter
the message, it needs to consider the effect this has on digital
signatures.
For a valid message I certainly agree. But I think the case is far
weaker for a syntactically invalid message.
If it works, fine. If not, that's a pity. Maybe add another test case if
the problem seems worth a workaround.
