Latest version by The Dragon, who writes:

I did some bugfixes, and fixed a major problem with the esmtp suport (I
think the person who did that part misunderstood RFC1869) Some of the
interface fer esmtp-related things has changed as a result.

I also added some documentation to the SMTP class' docstring.

ESMTP support, test code and doc fixes added by

Better RFC 821 compliance (MAIL and RCPT, and CRLF in data)
by Carey Evans <c.evans@clear.net.nz>, for picky mail servers.
by Carey Evans <c.evans@clear.net.nz>, for picky mail servers.
(This was modified from the Python 1.5 library HTTP lib.)
This should follow RFC 821 (SMTP) and RFC 1869 (ESMTP).
Notes:
Please remember, when doing ESMTP, that the names of the SMTP service
extensions are NOT the same thing as the option keyords for the RCPT
and MAIL commands!

SMTP Objects:
SMTP objects have the following attributes:
helo_resp
This is the message given by the server in responce to the
most recent HELO command.
ehlo_resp
This is the message given by the server in responce to the
most recent EHLO command. This is usually multiline.
does_esmtp
This is a True value _after you do an EHLO command_, if the
server supports ESMTP.
esmtp_features
This is a dictionary, which, if the server supports ESMTP,
will _after you do an EHLO command_, contain the names of the
SMTP service extentions this server supports, and their
parameters (if any).
Note, all extention names are mapped to lower case in the
dictionary.
For method docs, see each method's docstrings. In general, there is
a method of the same name to preform each SMTP comand, and there
is a method called 'sendmail' that will do an entiere mail
