I think you can toggle the following BOOL in globals.c to change this
behavior:

BOOL    strip_trailing_dot     = FALSE;


Caveat Emptor: I haven't tested this, but a grep and a few glances
through the code seem to point in this direction.

The same behavior is exhibited in the RCPT ACL, so I'm assuming it's
global. I don't have any need to change the default, so I'll likely not
test this. Try it out, post your results, and revert if necessary.
