I think, I found where the problem is: I'm working under MS Windows,
using a starttls compiled by me under the cygwin environment. Could it
be possible that there are CRLF vs. CR problems? I've got this idea
because the IMAP-LOG buffer has extra linefeeds in it (every line looks
like this:
foo bar foo bar^M
schlurps murks^M
)

Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider
that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough
space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize
this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
