Bad RFC822 field name ''

[Jérôme MOLLIER-PIERRET]

Hi all,

We use Malscanner with qmail, and experienced this morning some issue
with stranges mail that are non RFC822 compliant.

It seem that the mail package Mail::Internet has problem when
Mailscanner trying to process this mail from his queue.

In debug mode the error is :
Bad RFC822 field name ''
  at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Mail/Internet.pm line 130

The same behavior occured on two different systems with differents
libraries.

The only way to solve this issue we founded for now is to remove the
"stranges mail" from the Mailscanner queue and relaunch the service.
This is not fully solved, and we'll keep you informed of the status.

Any feedback will be appreciated.

Regards,

Jerome
