I often get mail coming in from the wild with long lines and I find the most practical approach is to pass it on to dovecot LMTP as is, and it just works, and the message is stored with long lines, not folded. I haven't tried dovecot's submission yet. What exactly can you tell me about line length limits in LMTP and submission and can it be configured?

The folding is done within the protocol. Aki
