Would rejecting for non-conformance of a message be any different than using rfc-ignorant.org which will blacklist you if you don't have working postmaster and abuse addresses.
An RFC 2822 validator is (IMO) pointless. The mail RFCs, especially anything related to MIME, are so badly specified and have so many unspecified edge-cases that rejecting a so-called "invalid" message for not conforming to the RFC would render you unable to communicate with a significant fraction of the Internet. RFC 2231 is a particular low point for the IETF, in my opinion. What the H*LL were they thinking?? You have no idea the grief we went through to make MIME::Tools handle that in a semi-reasonable way.
