Hi,
as I noticed Courier (at least version 0.53.2) does not unescape double dot 
lines.

This means that the following line:

..

should be unscaped to:

.

But Courier does not. The interesting thing is that Courier does remove the 
first dot if it is followed by letters.

Means:

..This is a Line

becomes:

.This is a Line



I think this is a bug in unescaping a escaped dot, is it?

regards
Daniel


PS: FYI: That is the original text from RFC 2821:

      When a line of mail text is received by the SMTP server, it checks
      the line.  If the line is composed of a single period, it is
      treated as the end of mail indicator.  If the first character is a
      period and there are other characters on the line, the first
      character is deleted.
