This is a tool limitation.  In the XML source, there is a newline after
that period and "not-for-mail" is on the next line.  xml2rfc doesn't use
two spaces after the period when reflowing the paragraph.

The paragraph currently uses one sentence per concept, and the part about
not-for-mail is not the same concept as the previous sentence.  I'm
hesitant to fiddle with the grammar to work around a minor rendering flaw
in the converter.

Thanks, I'll try to get this fixed.
