My experience with $SuspiciousCharsInBody are that it is pretty much
useless in all circumstances except for a very strict home system
with a few users. There are simply too many crappy MUAs out there.

Cyrus rejects messages with these characters, and I'd rather refuse
during smtp than generate bounces after Cyrus delivery fails.  Almost
all of it really is garbage, about 15,000 a day (of 1.5 million--
exactly the .01% Per reported previously!).



Mimedefang strips all CR
characters from the input, before putting them in INPUTMSG, even if they
are "lone" CR characters that trigger the "suspiciousBody" flag. So you
will never see the CR characters in mimedefang (and neither will any
virus scanner or other content scanner you might use).

So that's it!  So the best I can do is distinguish null from return.
Thanks.
