> The MIME spec requires that all message line breaks be converted into proper 
> CRLF sequence (linebreak canonicalization) and that any period at the 
> beginning of a line be "byte-stuffed" (two periods written out instead of 
> one).  The current SMTPTransport is just takes the message data as is.  The 
> byte-stuffing is particularly important, since this prevents periods within 
> the message from being mistaken with the DATA command terminator string.  
> This fault can cause message truncation.
