Greetings,
In src/util/valid_hostname.c (version 2.5.5), valid_hostname gives a
"misplaced delimiter" warning if the hostname ends in a trailing dot.
Since a trailing dot is technically part of a FQDN, I suggest that
valid_hostname allow them. Patch attached.

P.S. New to postfix, couldn't find any version control from the
website, hence the patch against 2.5.5. The bug also exists in
2.6-20080903.
Welcome to postfix!
Valid hostnames in mail are not the same as valid DNS
hostnames. Mail hostnames never end with a dot.
The current behavior is correct and won't be changed.
but thanks for your willingness to help and taking the effort
to supply a patch.
