Moreover, snapshot 20140219 does not change anything: the test that
I added is a NOOP. Thus, the 20140219 SMTP client behaves the same
way as the 20140209 client.

Meanwhile I have found how to fix the old bug that I mentioned
above. 

With future releases, the SMTP client won't throttle down the
destination when the last MX host hangs up after sending a 4XX or
5XX reply to "MAIL FROM". Instead the SMTP client will handle this
in the same way as when the server did not hang up.
