Ok, this is the more complicated fix for the problem.
I do *not* guarantee that this works. It worked for me single test-case,
but I think somebody should double-check my logic. Does it seem sane?
It basically considers all the continuation lines to be lines of their
own, and if the total line is bigger than what we can fit in it, we just
truncate the result rather than stop in the middle and then get confused
when we try to parse the "next" line (which is just the remainder of the
first line).
It also moves the "From " and ">From " special cases into the rfc2822
header line checker helper function, because the flow seemed much more
logical that way.
Is this better than my stupid one-liner that just extended the line size?
I dunno..
Linus
