str = "Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2014 16:02:26 -0400\r\nFrom: [email protected]\r\nTo: [email protected]\r\nMessage-ID: <[email protected]>\r\nMime-Version: 1.0\r\nContent-Type: text/plain;\r\n charset=UTF-8\r\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\r\n\r\nlook, a period with no endline\r\n."

      smtp = Net::SMTP.new(...)
      smtp.start(...) do |smtp_obj|
        response = smtp_obj.sendmail(message, "[email protected]","[email protected]")
      end
```

The SMTP server is going to throw a 400 or 500 error (depending on it's configuration) because the last period is send un-stuffed in the DATA block:

```
look, a period with no endline
.
.
```

When it should be:

```
look, a period with no end line
..
.

```

(ie, not dot-stuffed) and the second period the SMTP server doesn't know what to do with.  Adding an additional new-line fixes the problem, but I the in-line documentation for SMTP send_message does not say anything about a new-line being requires for message sending to work.

Sorry, I can't test against the latest Ruby right now, but this is confirmed against 1.9.3 r448.  If someone can confirm against newer that would be great.

I did do a search for "SMTP" and did not see this reported anywhere in the Issues database.
