MessageToMTA() needs to call sendmail with -i option. Without it, long descriptions that contain ".\n" will get truncated by the MTA.

Note: bug 117055 describes the same problem in bugzilla 2.16 (processmail). This (new) bug report is against bugzilla 2.20. In other words, the problem has returned.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Type a line of text in an additional comment.
2.Type a dot char on an empty line.
3.Type some more comments, but keep the dot on an (otherwise) empty line.
4.Commit it.
Actual Results:  
The additional comments after a "." on an empty line are not emailed.

Expected Results:  
Should get the whole long desc in the email.
