Sorry for not replying earlier but most of the sysadmin team is not
tracking pgsql-docs that closely for issues - afaiks there was a typo in
your mail - the "To" in your mail looked like this:


To: pgsql-docs@postgresql org <pgsql-docs@postgresql.org>
  References: <1428009501118.85114@postgrespro.ru>
<5522E656.4060201@gmx.net>
 <562E061B.1090809@postgrespro.ru>
 <CAECtzeWiOkS=wVnk4T+4Bg3-z-5DGL09jp7ks5QAiDEO4d10+Q@mail.gmail.com>


notice that there is a space after "pgsql-docs@postgresql" instead of
what I suspect should be a "." causing the header syntax check in exim
to barf on the mail.
