This appeared to work fine and does, for most messages. However,

The people doing mass the mailings are email-incompetent. These
MUST be done as Bcc. They MUST NOT attempt to list all recipients
in the To: or Cc: lines.
Such mass mailings, if delivered, cause mail-storms when someone
is foolish enough to Reply-Al. And they do stress various email
header limits.
Thanks. I appreciate the reminder. The methodology is long standing
and should be altered. The users have only the tools offered to them.
However, not trying to be argumentative at all -
While I agree Bcc is correct, I am having difficulty accepting,
logically, not in fact, that the forwarded message should fail.
After all, it is actually addressed to only one person
a server side forwarding only changes envelopes but don't touch the
mail, hence the From-HEADER remains unchanged
BTW - here:
/^To:.{20000}/ REJECT Administrative Prohibition (To-Header Too Long)
/^Cc:.{20000}/ REJECT Administrative Prohibition (Cc-Header Too Long)
/^Subject:.{2048}/ REJECT Administrative Prohibition (Subject-Header Too
Long)
