-----------------------+----------------------
An email I forwarded using 'mutt' was unexpectedly truncated mid-body.
By replacing /usr/sbin/sendmail, I observed that this seemed to be
happening because mutt was sending a bare fullstop. Mutt appears to do
this when both of the following are true:
1. the mail being forwarded uses Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-
printable
2. the mail being forwarded has a line with a '.' at position 76
The mail is then truncated at that line; the lines after it are discarded.

I have attached a mailbox with a minimal message which exibits this
problem.
