You want people to write emails to the gtar Authors to convince them to
make gtar POSIX-compliant.
Conclusion:
YOU have to write a complain to the authors of that programm, so that they
will make it "compliant" to RECENT Email-Standards.
(Or patch it yourself, implementing this feature should be TRIVIAL)
Btw. You know that RFC-822 is "deprecated", RFC-2822 is now THE
Email-Standard. (I don't KNOW it, but i think those headers are defined in
RFC-2822)
Conclusion:
EMail-Programm violating RFC-2822 have to be FIXED.
Maybe i should fetch RFC-2822 and look if you HAVE TO fix you MUA.

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated,
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
