Any pointers to the RFC ...
I have glanced 821 and 2821 but not (yet) found the description of the
allowed literals. I once found it but remember it was hours of search
:-(

As for the mail in question : It is a by user-filter forwarded (spam)
mail from a system using SRS.
Our only intention is to not bounce anything after accepting it and we
want to know if its better to reject or force the AV to accept it.

Thanxs
