I am indeed using NNTP, but really I'm not even looking at cr+lf etc...
Basically I'm sending the following command to retrieve a message:
"ARTICLE <message-id>\r\n"
Then I'm reading all the data up until \r\n.\r\n is found.... (that
is, a new line, a dot, and a new line again) which marks the end of an
email.... and I'm saving that data to the disk
mmm, now that I say it like that though.... a dot on a newline marks
the end of a message... and my problem is that I have dot inserted on
new lines? can't be a coincidence!... but then again, I'm using
AsyncSocket's "readToData" function... so I don't have much control
over that...

Well after comparing the data that I am receiving with the data
that I SHOULD be receiving, it turns out that dots (yes, the dot
character (.) ) are added all over the place in the data.... if I
have 10 extra bytes, it means 10 extra dots were added to my data,
so for example, a line that SHOULD read:
.m;{äMã≈P#ü1ˆTMë&L>ÆÖ-«∏4iˇ¯àÚPë‡gêæ¯Ø
Instead reads:
..m;{äMã≈P#ü1ˆTMë&L>ÆÖ-«∏4iˇ¯àÚPë‡gêæ¯Ø
Notice the extra dot at the beginning of the line... it turns out
that ALL the extra dots that gets added are at the beginning of
lines, when there is already a dot there....
Now, that data is downloaded straight from the socket and saved to
disk, I am not adding/merging nor doing anything with it so I
wonder if it's not a bug with AsyncSocket?? but I guess if it were
adding dots all over the place people would've notice it already...
I'm out of ideas here really!
I could be wrong on this, but assuming you're using NNTP, ISTR it
documented to have lines separated by cr+lf? And that the multi-
part stuff is based lines separated by those pairs - and if you
separate into lines based one only one of them, the extra will get
added (erroneously) to the line?
