--- Comment #5 from Jeremy Harris <jgh146exb@???> ---
Changing to a wishlist entry, as this would be a new feature: enforcing a
limitation previously ignored.
The simplest implementation would seem to be a new option to limit the
acceptable length of a header physical line (as opposed to the overall length
of a header which has been folded). The default value would be 998. We get
to choose what to do with UTF8 characters; my initial take would be to define
this option to be specifying the limit in bytes.
More complex would be optional header-line re-folding. I do not think we
want to do this, at least at first.
We should also consider body lines; the spec (rfc 5322 section 2.3) says the
same limit applies. Probably the same variable should control behaviour and
the name should reflect this.
