Anyone seeing this FP?

SprintPCS Phone email causes this:

They are sent from NNNNNNNNN@messaging.sprintpcs.com, where N is a number
for phone.

 pts rule name              description
---- ----------------------
--------------------------------------------------
 0.2 NO_REAL_NAME           From: does not include a real name
 1.5 FROM_STARTS_WITH_NUMS  From: starts with nums
 0.5 FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS      From: ends in numbers
 1.7 MSGID_FROM_MTA_ID      Message-Id for external message added locally
 1.6 MISSING_SUBJECT        Missing Subject: header
 0.0 MSGID_FROM_MTA_HEADER  Message-Id was added by a relay

I'd think sprint would take care of the missing SUBJECT header and Messege
ID! Isn't that an RFC requirement? Or just common email curtesy?

I suspect that Sprint is doing this to save on text messaging characters
from Cell Phones.

I beleive the message ID is RFC, the subject is just curtesy..

According to 2822, Subject is optional, the Message-ID header is also
optional but is listed as "SHOULD be there".
