Ha, you ran into the exact same problem. For some reason your post
didn't come up when I did a Google search. I'll take a look at your
filter and see if it will do the trick for me.

I'm still confused as it seems like EXIM should be signing based on just
headers content and not message body content so I don't know why long
lines in the body would cause this issue.
