No, there isn't -- everything in the BADHEADERS test is a violation of the
RFCs.
In the case of the Hotmail problem, Hotmail's mail system was designed so
that users could cause their E-mails to be non-RFC-compliant. I'm guessing
that instead of having the user choose their time zone, they must let the
user enter a time zone without checking to see if it is valid.
Note that in this case, the E-mail that the Hotmail user was sending out
essentially has no date/time, and therefore could easily get "lost" in an
inbox sorted by date.
