There is no doubt it has value whether you got it at DATA (up to the
first blank) or received the entire payload.
The difference is a question of overhead savings which SMTP does not
allow because a receiver can not DROP at the first blank due to some
clear DKIM/SMTP verification/policy failure. To do so creates an
implicit 451 retransmission problem.
See the discussion in IETF-SMTP about this very issue:
