No, those people just do not want to accept explicitly malformed messages which are undeliverable locally. A quite narrow task :-)

Yes, I agree. In my understanding, "strict_rfc821_envelopes = yes" should include this sanity check too. It does not, as of 2.4.5.

"strict_7bit_headers = yes" does something other, explicitly unwanted in my case. Too many dumb web-scripts are still sending Cyrillic subjects in plain 8-bit "koi8-r" charset.

And the proposed PCRE workaround is outside of main.cf, isn't it? However, it works.

Do you need help?X
