Hi,

I experience problems with certain kinds of spam that are 
apparently not standard compliant (what a surprise ;-)

SA does not add the required LF at the end of the message, and as a 
result, my MTA (slocal) does not see the end of the message, 
resulting in messages being lumped together.

This has caused me to stop using SA 2.31. You can see the effect if 
you run the attached message through SA with
spamassassing -P < problemmail.txt

Contrary to doing the same with sample-spam.txt or 
sample-nonspam.txt, there is no empty line at the end of the file. 
Hence the result described above.

Since it seems futile to wait until spammers respect standards and 
fix their spam, can one of the SA gurus tell me how I have to patch 
SA in order to make sure that it ALWAYS adds a LF to the end of the 
file? I'd rather have two empty lines than losing one because I did 
not realise they were lumped together...

Many thanks for any help!

Andreas
