BUG in the minivend mail list!

[Jarno Niemela <jargon@iki.fi>]

Hello.

I noticed a nice 'feature' in the minivend mail list software.

If you put three lines with only a '.' char in them, the mail list
will think that you message ends.

And I've been using this notation when I've sent a snippets
of code, and indicated parts of function which do not relate to
the current problem with three dots.

I think that it's some off Unix feature (something from vi or ...),
so it's best just to know about it and avoid using it.

Example without ' chars the next lines wouldn't show.

'.'
'.'
'.'

Now if those would have been just . chars you wouldn't be able to see this.

Jarno.
