[fetchmail] [PATCH] fetchmail does not escape starting dots in BSMTP

Hi friends,

this is related to Debian bug #184469 [1].  Fetchmail does not escape
starting dots when writing to BSMTP.  As RFC 821 says: "Before sending
a line of mail text the sender-SMTP checks the first character of the
line.  If it is a period, one additional period is inserted at the
beginning of the line.".  This misbehavior causes BSMTP to fail
afterwards.

Here is a patch that fix this issue.

Cheers,
Benjamin
