Intermediaries should try to be as transparent as possible. But because of 8-to-7 conversion if nothing else, message/rfc822 and multiparts are special. If you send messages with either of these content-types and the content is malformed, you're going to get some glitches.

As per my previous message, it's worse than this -- the From field is clearly a case of malformed content, but the long lines are not. Thus you can get some "glitches" even with perfectly valid messages. Sigh.
