I am not an expert on mail server/client like you guys. What happened
to me is that if I send such an email to myself, in my
/var/mail/myusername, I do see double dots added (what is so called
"the other side"?). I guess then it should be mail clients'
responsibility to remove these dots. However, at least mutt (operate
locally) does not do this, neither does MS/OE/SMTP.
If this can not be the default behavior of mutt, can it be an option
like default_encoding?
