Well, get rid of the superfluous second 'echo' then too, replacing it
 with another '\n'. IOW:

        ( printf '%s\n\n' "$SUBJECT" ; cat "$dotest/msg" ) |

 instead.

This work for me: no more test failure on my computer

Thanks for confirmation.  I reproduced the breakage and the fix myself
with "make SHELL_PATH=/bin/dash" myself, too.
