I have some instances, which generates mail from stdin (ie something like "echo bla|mail root") and recently I found that there exists additional empty line in such emails, ie instead of --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- bla --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I have --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- bla --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I am rather confusing with it. Is this intentional?
That's almost certainly being done before submission to Exim by the 'mail' program. Some versions enforce a requirement that messages end with a blank line. There are also some delivery agents that add a blank line when delivering to mbox files which MUAs may or may not treat as part of the message boundary.
