I should have seen that in the headers :) I'm just going to suggest (very quietly and humbly) that the message you received doesn't meet RFC compliance, and that maybe the Courier MTA only accepts messages that do so because that's all that can be -reliably- parsed. Having suggested that, I'm going to go back to doing more productive things... like finishing those courier patches I was working on.
