The same hole is there in 1.8, sad but verified since the test sent me a relayed 
message using my server after the upgrade.

The message was the same as in 1.7:

>BAD HEADER Improper folded header field made up entirely of whitespace 
>(char 00 hex) in message header 'X-Envelope'

so it probably is a new exploit that gets both 1.7 and 1.8 and that would explain why 
the testing 9 months ago didn't catch it.
