If you're only adding X-Spam-Status, then it shouldn't cause problems.
(It might be too long to log the full list, but it ought to go through.)
The problem occurs when you put the *report* in the headers, in which
case you would get 130 lines like this:
* 0.1 TW_xx: Odd Letter Triples with xxx
That's ~45 bytes/line, or 5850 bytes for the 130 Tripwire rules in the
report -- well over half-way to the 8K limit. Throw in the report
header and footer and a few other rules and you can hit 8K easily.
