Works fine here.  I created a file with a <dot> by itself, ran
"bogofilter -p <msg.dot.txt > msg.dot.out" and compared the input
and output files.  The difference is the X-Bogosity line.

The console output is below and also in the attached file (in case the
message gets nuked by a mailer :-)

If anybody has a file like msg.dot.txt that _does_ get nuked by
bogofilter, please send a copy to me.

Regards,

David
