How would you detect a quoted-printable line feed in header checks?

I get lots of spam that includes several of these and would like to
reject them early.

If there is a good reason not to do this, please note such.

View the on-disk mail file with some low-level tool such as cat or
vi.  Match the text found there with your header_checks.

Careful, this sounds like something ripe for a high rate of false
positives.

So something like: header_checks=pcre:/path/to/file

/^Subject: .*=0A/  REJECT Bad Subject format

would work?

Yes, that should do the trick.


This is RFC breakage behavior I am trying to stop in the Subject line.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#section-2.2

The section says you can't use the LF character. Nothing in that section says you can't use "=0A" in your Subject.
