As mentioned, the sendmail MTA does rewrite some headers in order to get them to fold nicely. This code is old, added back when such reformatting for aesthetic reasons didn't break anything and was in fact desirable for presentation reasons. Obviously it has ill effects now, but this wasn't anticipated back then. Version 2.8.0 will have a new FFR feature which attempts to predict this rewriting and canonicalize the header fields as if the rewriting had already been done. It's still experimental but might alleviate some stress in some environments. I'm about to post a new beta release of 2.8.0 which contains the first draft of this code, should you be interested in trying it out.
