Comment (by kevin8t8):
Thanks that illustrates the problem more clearly. Note that if you use
$edit_headers, all of the email addresses make it into the edited message,
so mutt appears to be parsing the message just fine in this case.
The problem is the size of the buffer used when editing the Cc line in the
compose menu (in edit_address_list()).
Ideally, the buffer would realloc as needed when rfc822_write_address()
renders into it, but this problem is more subtle: it also interacts with
the editing menu, querying, history, etc.
I will work on fixing the sasl error for the 1.6 release, and we can
certainly bump up HUGE_STRING size for now. A "real" fix for the editing
menu is a bigger issue though, and perhaps should go into another ticket
as a feature request.
