A little survey on your local policies...

What do you do when a subject line is longer than 78 characters?

A. Reject
B. Accept as spam
C. Accept

Accept, absent some actual spam sign.

Note that the 78-character recommendation is not applicable to logical (decoded and unfolded) header fields but only to lines in the uninterpreted & unmodified transport format. To catch that in SA, a test would be something like:

header LONG_SUBJ_LINE Subject:raw =~ /.{79,}/m


And that will match mail that many people really want to not be blocked.
