Luckily it doesn't, since the final continuation line is not followed
by whitespace. I should have said:
"... is a whitespace character. The result is that any
footer with a continuation line is not accepted, since the last
continuation line neither starts with an RFC2822 field name nor is
followed by a continuation line.
That this has remained broken for so long is good evidence that nobody
actually needed multiline fields. Rip out the broken continuation
support.
No functional change intended."
I have no excuse, since you explained this all out loud to me a couple of
months ago. :) Sorry for the nonsense.
Thanks,
Jonathan
