Some (most ?) news servers behave similarly for posted articles
and critical news header fields, they enforce an SP after the
colon by whatever it takes:  Reject or expand / replace HT.

All USEFOR drafts stick to this "magic SP" in news, MUSTard,
ABNF, and rough consensus.  It would be really nice if DKIM
ignores *WSP immediately following the colon,  I want DKIM to
work also in NetNews.

Note that the issue here is *only* for simple/header canonicalization:
relaxed works just fine. If netnews really enforces the "space after :"
then it would actually work just fine too.

Of course there isn't a milter interface for inn -- or is there,
Frank? :)
