Betreff: [Exim] Panic on very long headers
I'm running Exim 3.13, and I've noticed that I am getting messages sitting
on the queue indefinitely, but with no log file available. If I force Exim
to deliver such a message, it panics with "string_sprintf expansion was
longer than 8192 characters". Putting -d10 on, it seems this is happening
when it runs the system filter. I see that every such message has an
enormous To: header (usually coming from some damn Outlook client) and our
system filter refers to $h_To:. Is there any way I can get round this
(other than turning off the system filter, which certainly fixes it)?
