I was able to turn off encryption and tried this. The log files shows, that Balsa does indeed convert the single dot to two dots and sends the whole message:

A few lines later there is a line beginning with "read(" which contains the mail contents, in which, however, there i s a single dot on the line (followed by the rest of the message).

That subsequent "read(" could be Balsa copying the message from the outbox to your fcc: box; in that case, it would have Unix ('\n') line endings, as well as the single dot. Balsa converts to cr-lf on the fly, as it passes the message to libesmtp, so it must have been libesmtp making that "write(12" call.
