exim and sendmail have identical behavior in this regard, a single period
on the input stream terminates a message:

$ /usr/sbin/sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
foo?
.
$

the documentation reveals that the sendmail option -oi works for both exim
and sendmail; my local mta command is starting to get a bit long here:

/usr/local/sbin/exim -t -dropcr -oi

perhaps all that is needed is really a documentation fix, advising users of
the local mta option that they may need to specify some or all of these
options to their sendmail compatible mta (although i don't think sendmail
does -dropcr).
