SYMPTOMS
After you apply the Smtpsvc.dll 1877.58 hotfix, messages with folded headers are moved to the Badmail folder and not processed for delivery. The following is an example of a folded header: Received: from by with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Thu, 11 Jan 2001 14:47:19 -0500



CAUSE
The search for headers is improperly stopped when a carriage return/line feed (CR/LF) is reached and the header is not checked to see if the next line is part of the same header.
