fixed correct processing of mails with data lines longer 4096 chars Mail messages with lines longer than 4096 chars were already read correctly, i.e. the spool files were correct. This commit fixes the reading of spool files with long lines. The old behavior was that the message body was truncated right before the first line longer 4096 chars. The number comes from MAX_DATALINE.

<p>The alias file consists of lines of the form:</p>
<pre>
local_part: item1, item2, ...
</pre>

<p>Items can be surrounded by quotes '"'. If within the quotes other
quotes are needed for an address they can be escaped with a leading
backslash '\'.</p>

<p>A leading '\' indicates that this address shall not be further
expanded.</p>

<p>A leading pipe symbol '|' indicates that the item shall be treated
as a pipe command. The content of the message will then be sent to the
standard input of a command. The command will run under the user id
and group id masqmail is running as. If quotes are needed, the pipe
symbol must appear <i>within</i> the quotes.</p>

<p>Loops will be detected, the offending address will be ignored.</p>

<p>Aliases will be expanded at <i>delivery</i> time. This means that
if there is a message still in the queue and you change any alias
which matches one of the recipient addresses, the change will have
effect next time a delivery is attemped.</p>

<p>There is no need to restart masqmail or run any command when the
alias file has been changed.</p>
