However, there are many email systems (eg recent Outlook versions) that will not wrap long lines properly. As a result, rather then us rejecting such messages, our incoming and outgoing email servers will allow long lines.
 
Since September 2023, when we are given an email with lines over 998 characters we will add a header to explain this. Example:
 
<SyntaxHighlight> X-AA-RFC5322: Message excedesexceeds RFC 5322 line Length Limits, but allowing it. (20479/998) </SyntaxHighlight>
 
The 20479 in this example is the length of the longest line in the message.
