lmtpd rejecting valid messages

Hello,
I'm using Cyrus IMAPd 2.2.6.
Cyrus' lmtpd seems to reject header-only messages, i.e. messages which
don't have a blank line (CRLF) after the last header line.
AFAICT such messages should be accepted, at least they're valid according
to RFC 2822.
The problem is that the MTA accepts header-only messages, delivers them to
Cyrus lmtpd which rejects them with "Message has no header/body separator",
and generates a bounce because of the delivery failure. (The original sender
probably supplied Joe's address as the envelope sender, and Joe receives
the bounce...)
Is this intended behaviour, or am I missing something?
Comments are welcome!
TIA, Jukka
