If there are any, screw them; obviously their developers do not want their 
users, and their users who are Internet service providers do not want their 
customers, to receive proper e-mails.  Those bugs ought to be fixed, and 
there is no leverage on those people if you keep catering to their bugs.   
Industry standards exist to be followed, not ignored.

<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#section-2.1>

Are you confusing MTAs and MUAs?
