Thanks, it works fine now! :-)
I've confused by spec.txt:

message_suffix                  Type: string*              Default: see below


    The string specified here is expanded and output at the end of every
    message. The default is unset unless "file" is specified and "use_bsmtp"
    is not set, in which case it is a single newline character.


IMHO it should be corrected for describe default for pipe transport.

Default is not significant if it's conforming to the documentation. ;-)
