Hm, but the messages in the mail spool do already end with an empty
line, so I don't think it's necessary to add another one.  Even if it
was, the empty line doesn't belong to the message body, I think, so
why does Gnus increase the Lines header's value?

BTW, I don't know if this is of importance, but if I remeber
correctly, I had the same problem when I was using the nnml backend.

Any suggestions?
