Re: texi2dvi (from texinfo 4.8) does not honor @.

[Karl Berry]

Hi Jim,

    I was surprised to see that in both pdf and DVI output,
    address@hidden' does not render as it is documented to do.

I am surprised too :).

    The documentation led me to expect a sentence-ending
    amount of space after the period.

Indeed, that is what is supposed to happen.  

I checked in the patch below for it.  Thanks for the report :).
