[Dovecot] Wrong headers in dovecot-crlf
Hello everyone,
I'm using the very good imaptest [0] tool to test my little imap server implementation. I've tried to use the dovecot-crlf [1] file, but it looks like there are some major issues :

As you can see, many of the "In-Reply-To" headers are polluted with some junk. The situation is the same for many "Message-ID" headers.
I don't know why they are here, but I think it's a mistake. I thought I would let you know.

Yes, those aren't valid RFC 2822 headers. I'm not entirely sure if they're valid RFC 822 headers.

They're there because those headers were sent originally to this list. I don't have any specific reason to modify the mails, and it might be better not to do it so that real world parsers can also figure out what to do with broken mails.
