I have a problem with some messages passed from exim to dovecot lmtp service:
From exim debug:

now above "writting message and terminating" according to exim strace looks like this:
13413 22:07:24 write(2, " LMTP>> writing message and terminating \".\"\n", 45) = 45 <0.000018> 13413 22:07:24 stat("/etc/localtime", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2705, ...}) = 0 <0.000025> 13413 22:07:24 write(2, "cannot use sendfile for body: terminating dot wanted\n", 53) = 53 <0.000022> 13413 22:07:24 lseek(3, 19, SEEK_SET) = 19 <0.000015> [...] 13413 22:07:24 write(2, "writing data block fd=6 size=6585 timeout=300\n", 46) = 46 <0.000019> 13413 22:07:24 alarm(300) = 0 <0.000013> 13413 22:07:24 write(6, "Return-path: [...] \nwrap\"><br></span></div>.\n", 6585) = 6585 <0.000023>
and then exim waits for dovecot lmtp to say it accepted message but lmtp never does that.
Isn't .\n always enough for dovecot to signal end of message? Because exim wrote full message to dovecot lmtp unix socket.
Now the interesting this - exim does only one write() with 6585 bytes to write that message to lmtp. If exim needs more than one write() to do that (message is larger by some buffer) then it succeeds, dovecot accepts it.
Could dovecot lmtp handling for single write() case be broken?
dovecot 2.2.35 And reproducer. Both messages have ".\n" as ending but one has \r\n before it.
#!/usr/bin/python3
import socket
c = socket.socket(socket.AF_UNIX, socket.SOCK_STREAM) c.connect("/var/run/dovecot/lmtp") print(c.recv(1024)) print("LHLO") c.send(b"LHLO mbox8\r\n") print(c.recv(1024)) print("MAIL FROM") c.send(b"MAIL FROM:someone@example.com\r\n") print(c.recv(1024)) print("RCPT TO") c.send(b"RCPT TO:arekm@example.com\r\n") print(c.recv(1024)) print("DATA") c.send(b"DATA\r\n") print(c.recv(1024)) print("body...")
msg_fail = b"testtest<br></span></div>.\n" msg_ok = b"01, 41.82, 30.14\r\n.\n"
#c.send(msg_ok)
c.send(msg_fail)print(c.recv(1024))
c.close()
Shouldn't the last dot be own it's own line?
