- The SMTP client they implemented could insert a newline such that a line was comprised of only a single period.

- The SMTP client spec says that an additional period would be added here.

- The SMTP server spec says that it would remove this additional period, bringing us back to one period.

I don’t get how this led to there being no period at all. Am I missing something?
