But one message earlier, you said that "<CRLF>.<CRLF>" is the
terminator. Now you are saying ".<CRLF>" is the terminator. Which
one is it? (I vote for ".<CRLF>", opposing the example in the RFC.)
Presumably, an SMTP server reading the DATA command will also read the
<CRLF> that follows it. Hence, the <CRLF> is not available for the
subsequent end of data indication anymore.
