Yes, that is correct.

Actually, they are captured by the BADHEADERS test because they have broken
headers. If headers were left out, the BADHEADERS test would only fail if
they were required headers (such as the "Date:" header). The BADHEADERS
test should only fail if the E-mail headers are not RFC compliant.
However, if this is a web server of yours, you can use the WHITELIST
feature, adding a line "WHITELIST IP 127.0.0.1" to your global.cfg file
(replacing 127.0.0.1 with the IP of your web server). However, that won't
prevent other mail servers from rejecting the E-mail; the best thing to do
is get the web server to send out the mail properly.

You can do this now with Declude, although it isn't documented yet:
You add (to \IMail\Declude\global.cfg) the word "WHITELIST", followed by
"IP", "FROM", or "ANYWHERE", followed by the text to look for. For
example, "WHITELIST IP 127.0.0.1" would whitelist any E-mails coming from
the IP address 127.0.0.1. You could also use "WHITELIST IP 127.0.0." to
whitelist any IP beginning with 127.0.0.
Some examples of FROM would be "WHITELIST FROM @declude.com" to whitelist
any E-mail from declude.com, or "WHITELIST FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED]" to
just whitelist E-mails from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
An example of ANYWHERE might be "WHITELIST ANYWHERE This is not spam"
(although you wouldn't want to do that; most E-mail that contains "This is
not spam" really is spam).
You can have up to 100 WHITELIST entries in your \IMail\Declude\global.cfg
file.
