Subject: [Exim] line with a single dot
Hi,
I have a problem with email where there is a line with only a dot '.'
The email is cut there and the rest is lost (even if there is
attachments)like in the mail command where the dot is used for terminating
the body of the email.

ex :
line 1 : See this text on the received email
line 2 : .
line 3 : this line and the rest is lost

is this a bug? Is this problem resolve in more new versions of exim?

The running version of exim is :

# exim -bV
Exim version 3.12 #1 built 08-Jun-2001 14:21:07
