the example given in the bad rcpt to line syntax error on postfix has
a space in it,
as seen recently telnetting to a postfix server.

I think rejecting based on stray spaces is being too strict.

qmail is also happy without angle brackets.  And with no colon.  I would
much rather telnet to a qmail server to do raw smtp than a pickier server,
although lately I do all my forged mailing list subscribing with TipJar::MTA.

I have a bike shed. I got it from Home Depot in a flat and 
heavy box, it took several weekends to put together, and
now it has so much junk in it that there is no room for my
bike. It was painted at the factory. I could paint it again if
I felt like it but I doubt I will.
