Comment (by daveagp):

 IIRC the problem is in Gmail handling of urls. It assumes that if you end
 a url in a period, you actually mean the period as the end of a sentence.
 My hope is to add this compatibility for Gmail which at the same time is
 not harming any other service. Please let me know if there's anything I
 can do, because this is a pain for my users and causes toil for me that I
 would like to eliminate.
