I can't remember when this configuration option came in but:
strip_trailing_dot Use: main Type: boolean Default: false
If this option is set, a trailing dot at the end of a domain in an address is
ignored. If this is in the envelope and the message is passed on to another MTA,
the dot is not passed on. If this option is not set, a dot at the end of a
domain causes a syntax error. However, addresses in header lines are checked
only when an ACL requests header syntax checking.

Is that any help ?
