+* Why doesn't a memory BIO work when a file does?
+
+This can occur in several cases for example reading an S/MIME email message.
+The reason is that a memory BIO can do one of two things when all the data
+has been read from it.
+
+The default behaviour is to indicate that no more data is available and that
+the call should be retried, this is to allow the application to fill up the BIO
+again if necessary.
+
+Alternatively it can indicate that no more data is available and that EOF has
+been reached.
+
+If a memory BIO is to behave in the same way as a file this second behaviour
+is needed. This must be done by calling:
+
+   BIO_set_mem_eof_return(bio, 0);
