'''SMTP/ESMTP client class.
This should follow RFC 821 (SMTP), RFC 1869 (ESMTP), RFC 2554 (SMTP
Authentication) and RFC 2487 (Secure SMTP over TLS).
Please remember, when doing ESMTP, that the names of the SMTP service
extensions are NOT the same thing as the option keywords for the RCPT
>>> s=smtplib.SMTP("localhost")
This is Sendmail version 8.8.4
For more info use "HELP <topic>".
To report bugs in the implementation send email to
sendmail-bugs@sendmail.org.
For local information send email to Postmaster at your site.
