Python Regex

I have the below string and regex. However I cant understand why it works the way it does. IP has been changed for safety Smilie

String = NowSMS Error Report. Error initializing SMSC Interface 'SMPP - 10.15.8.10:17600'. Interface is not available.

Regex = (.+\.)\s(.+)

I get two backreferences as expected.

Group 1: NowSMS Error Report. Error initializing SMSC Interface 'SMPP - 10.15.8.10:17600'.

Group 2: Interface is not available.

Question:

Why doesn't group 1 = NowSMS Error Report. <------ stopping at first period
