Trying to notify them of virus-infected machines on their network.

Sending to the address they have registered with 'abuse.net',
gets:

They appear to have a bunch of script problems -- only one of which i can
troubleshoot from this end. :-%

The 'bad RFC822 field name' is the last part of the actual "Subject: " header.
looks like 'something' line-wrapped it, and then 'something else' didn't
recognice a 'continuation line' -- the original line is about 85 chars long.
