ISS 1u5 p19

When a search result from ISS includes a line like in the example below, then the resulting JSON is invalid.

The message in question contained a strangely formatted full name portion in the 'From' address.
In this case ISS should either strip out the leading whitespace or properly encode it as “\r\n …”.

For reference, here’s the leading part of the From line:

For sake of clarity, this is:

From:<space>"<CR><LF><space>=?utf-8?B?dGhpcyBpcyBzb21lIHRleHQgw6HDqSwgw63Dsw=?="

Testing shows the Messaging Server's MTA rewrites such a folded line, but this kind of message could be added by eg. using an IMAP APPEND command.
