Cyrus Patches used at FastMail.FM

[Carlos Horowicz]

Hi

I get only a daily few of "Message contains invalid header" but a couple 
of thousand per day of "Message contains NUL characters" from lmtpd ... 
I've read through all threads both in postfix and cyrus lists about 
this, but didn't find any conclusion on how to avoid the bounces ... has 
the Fastmail.FM patch anything to do with the NUL chars in the body ?
