  Comment #15 is mine.  My remote ISP's MTA rejects (as in 5XX, not a
bounce) emails containing "bare linefeeds".  This happens before my
blocking rules see the email, so I can't do anything about it.  This ISP
is the only that allows me to admin stmtp-stage spamblocking, without
having to admin my own machine.  I like the power of being able to issue
the big 550, rather than merely diverting to a spam folder.  I simply
have no alternative, short of running my own MTA, and all that entails.
