Hi,

Long ago I patched mailutils for Debian to add a program description for
comsatd and movemail, which were the only ones lacking one in the whole
program suite.

I guess I've posted this trivial patch before, but I'm doing it again
as I can't remember if it was rejected or it just slipped through the
cracks.

Besides adding the two msising descriptions, it removes some trailing dots
for some programs which had it. I can't decide if the trailing dot should
be there (every GNU program does whatever it wants, apparently), but for
now I decided to get rid of them. I'll let Sergey have the final word on
such an important matter. :)
