It is always tempting to react to a specific anomaly by adding a 'fix' specific to it.  Unfortunately, over time, this tends to produce a rat's nest of idiosynchratic behaviors.

Where possible, it's better to take the case of the anomaly as a prod to consider whatever larger issue it is part of, and make any changes -- if needed -- from that larger perspective.

I think the thread did a reasonable job of this, by noting that relaying is the wrong place to enforce this kind of violation.

Exactly. The best and easiest solution is to contact the sender and tell them to fix the problem, by either using "relaxed/relaxed" or by reducing the line length to <=998 bytes.

This solves the problem for all receivers worldwide, not just for your system.
