(Reporter: mozilla, Assigned: mscott)

Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Opera 7.54u1  [en]
Build Identifier: Thunderbird 1.0

Whenever I send an e-mail, in the composer window it looks exactly how I want 
it, but after it is sent, an extra period is added to the very end of the 
message. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click write
2. Create a message and send it to yourself
3. Check your inbox for the message

Actual Results:  
An extra period is added in both HTML and plain text formats, with and without a 
signature. In fact, with plain text messages, an extra space is added before the 
period as well. See additional info.

Expected Results:  
No period should be added 

Here is the message source of an e-mail I sent to myself:

As you can see, there are a couple of spaces and then a period at the bottom.
Dupe of bug 196584?  See possible workaround at bug 196584 comment 3.
