This will not matter either, unless mhonarc is being invoked incorrectly.
If piping stdin and using -add in a alias, mhonarc treats the data
as a single message, so MSGSEP is not used. However, if you put
" -- - " as mhonarc arguments, then you may have problems.

I believe there is also a way to turn on Content-Length, but I do
not know the sendmail option off-hand. If Content-Length is properly
defined, then you can set the CONLEN resources to avoid message
splitting problems.
