it's possible that this is fixed already; i've not had the time to build a
more recent version and try it out:

0.64 does not appear to correctly implement RFC 2821 section 4.5.2,
"transparency". specifically, according to the RFC, a "." by itself on a
line ends data. if a "." appears in the body of actual user text, it is
required to be escaped by adding a second "." before SMTP transmission. the
other end is then expected to remove the "." character to restore the message
body.

what i'm seeing is that a "." by itself on a line is causing the message to
be terminated then and there, suggesting that mahogany isn't putting in the
required second "." character.

i've seen this with 7bit text; i am reading through some reasonably current
code i have on my system that i've not compiled yet, and will see if i can
figure out how to fix this myself. i think it'll be a good exercise for me
if i'm serious about contributing.
