I would guess (since he got it from a CGI script trying to send mail via
SMTP) that qmail-smtpd saw a message with a stray newline. (I used to get
this a lot when we switched over to qmail -- all of my CGI scripts that
send mail ran into it.)
You might look at

(although I chose instead to fix the offending CGI scripts).
