The functions news-mail-reply, news-reply and news-post-news in
emacs-18.55/lisp/rnewspost.el contain the code:
(narrow-to-region (point-min) (progn (goto-line (point-min))
(search-forward "\n\n")
(- (point) 2)))
followed by several calls to mail-fetch-field. When the field being
fetched is the last line in the header, it gets truncated by one
character. This happens only because of the (- (point) 2) above,
which causes the last line not to end with a newline.
I think that (- (point) 2) can be replaced with just (point). All of
the other functions that calls mail-fetch-field do this, and it works
fine.
