The line which adds the header was: add_header = X-tvScience-SendingHost: $sender_host_address $acl_c_ht $acl_c_cc so the :at_end: mechanism has been fooled into splitting the mail. Also of possible significance is that there was no whitespace in the long header and it was a single huge line. I suppose also there is the possibility that The incoming mail was actually broken when sent by Critical Path (on behalf of BTInternet) and exim then behaved appropriately under the circumstances. If this were the case Gmail would then be bouncing large numbers of mail and there seems to be no evidence of this (see below). The original rejection from Gmail said: 550-5.7.1 [77.74.196.254 11] Our system has detected that this message is 550-5.7.1 not RFC 2822 compliant. To reduce the amount of spam sent to Gmail, 550-5.7.1 this message has been blocked. Please review 550 5.7.1 RFC 2822 specifications for more information. un7si4022492wjc.70 - gsmtp Not that Gmail are rejecting it for an overly long header. Probably they are rejecting it because the "From:" header is now in the message body. However, searching for: "Our system has detected that this message is not RFC 2822 compliant." does not produce much of interest. Probably Gmail actually accepts overly long header lines, as the amount of BTi => Gmail traffic must have caused ripples if this were not the case. What they DON'T accept are mails with dodgy/missing/duplicated "From:" headers and of course the header has now been pushed into the message body. I'll find some time today to try a test via SMTP.
