--- Comment #1 from Bill Cole <billcole@apache.org> ---
I'm not convinced that this qualifies as a bug.

Actual email messages end with CRLF, as RFC5322 (like its ancestors) defines a
message body as a set of lines. What real-world circumstance would actually
result in sending spamd something without a trailing CRLF?

Also, "Content-Length" is not present in many messages, in part because it is
inherently risky to actually trust a number in a header written by a random
spammer.
