It seems that Evolution correctly creates the header with wrapped headers as: Face:<crlf> <tab>... 997 more characters ...<crlf> <tab>... However, some mail handling software (at least mailman and apparently also the Debian list software) seems to rewrite the header resulting in the following: Face:<space>... 997 more characters ...<crlf> <space>... which means the first line ends up as 1003 characters. While this technically may be a bug in that software it is probably much easier to work around this in evolution than it is to fix all the deployed mail systems out there. -- -- arthur - adej...@debian.org - http://people.debian.org/~adejong --
