This  is likely  to be  the same  bug as  before. Could  you try  to set
$rcmail_config['mail_header_delimiter'] to '\n' in main.inc.php to check
if this  solves your problem. I suppose  that there is a  drawback to do
this.

Bug#603489: roundcube: BAD HEADER section by Amavis when using long mail subject

[Jort Koopmans]

Package: roundcube
Version: 0.3.1-6
Severity: minor


Hello again ;),
I've found a minor bug in the mail headers created by roundcube (or the 
handling of them by Amavis).
When using a long subject, roundcube cuts them up in two lines, breaking the 
handling by Amavis.

Example

Subject: test test test test test test test test test test test test test test 
test test
gives
X-Amavis-Alert: BAD HEADER SECTION, Improper use of control character (char 0D 
hex): Subject: ...test test test test test test test test\r\n test

I'm not sure if there are any standards (rfc's) needed to be considered for the 
mail-headers.

Best regards,
Jort Koopmans
