- I remember that exact error from the olden days when we still used Sun's
- sendmail config file. If you use the OR option (OUCH!) and mail a file
- without a new line at the end, I believe you see this. Supposedly, it
- commonly occurs if you use emacs and delete lines from the end of the
- message.
-
- If that is the case, you can (I don't know how) set emacs not to end
- the file without a nl or you can avoid the OR option.
-
- Just a guess,
