So, my questions:1) What is the logic behind the header size limit of 5000 bytes, since it seems it is not only to protect against too many recipients? Is it some memory reading issue?
Clearly allowing unlimited line size enables denial-of-service attacks, so some kind of an upper limit has to be set.
A 5000 byte limit for a single header is very reasonable.If someone wants to run a mailing list they should use a mailing list management software that's designed for that purpose, instead of trying to shoehorn something out of an ordinary E-mail client.
