Package: reportbug Version: 6.6.5 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
If file entered in $EDITOR has a "\n.\n" sequence, that sequence becomes "\n..\n" in the final bug report. See for example #808721 and #799299 (in the latter, an ed script was corrupted by issue). By code inspection, that is because reportbug dotstuffs the message body before passing it to smtplib.SMTP.sendmail(), while that function expects an undotstuffed argument (it applies dotstuffing by itself, unconditionally).
