Hi all (and happy new year),

I saw lines like these in the SMAIL log:

"tsd.unifi.it" "1294151990810.a28.880.25d715.dex1" "L1C7667" "[PRIVATE]" "[PRIVATE]" "SMTP" "gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com." "2011-01-04 15:36:46" "5.5.1 Unrecognized command. a11si22710935wer.104" "tsd.unifi.it" "1294151991384.a28.880.25d722.dex1" "L1C7667" "[PRIVATE]" "[PRIVATE]" "SMTP" "mx1.mail.eu.yahoo.com." "2011-01-04 15:36:49" "Command Unimplemented"

Looks like XMail picked up a file from /spool/local containing a single-dot line and tried to send it untouched. It tried again and again before giving up and, as a result, non-local recipients got multiple copies of the same (truncated) mail, so in a sense delivery was successful ...

IMHO: if the LMAIL client is supposed to escape leading dots, XMail should take care of unescaping them in LOCAL delivery (and should validate spool files better ... and documentation of LMAIL files format should be updated ...).

Alternatively, XMail should take care of escaping leading dots when doing SMTP delivery of files picked up by LMAIL.

Ciao, Francesco
