Yeah - that's odd...

Hmm - and still untouched in my latest codebase too.  We've got a
configurable maximum line length now.

That's basically what - 100M, changed up to 200M?  Or am I out by an
order of magnitude or so?  Maximum size for a single email.

I'd be happy to apply it (and also to replication...) - I don't see the
danger with either option, but it will block super-large emails.
