        Yes, I manually entered a '.', but it doesn't work.  It *is*
        reading data on the port, because the server issues a
        550 Error, message too long; max 128 characters,  if I go
        over the limit.

        Its like a CRLF semantics problem or something, and the
        server isn't seeing it quite right.  Its obviously still
        reading, just not seeing a *strict* <CRLF>.<CRLF>

        I've tried the telnet from a PC, and programmed keys to send
        LF, CR, LFCR, CRLF, etc...  No combination of those seems
        able to get the DATA read to finish successfully.
