I was bitten by the same problem while reporting a bug on mutt, there
the problem was the C compiler settings listed (I wonder why including
those is useful, those aren't specific to my environment?)

It really sucked that after taking 15 minutes to craft a good bug report
that due to this silly problem that time was completely wasted because of
the stupid exim handling of these too long lines. Perhaps an option to
always save a local copy before sending?
