New submission from Don Dwiggins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Found on Windows, running Python 2.4.3.
SMTP.login() and SMTP.sendmail set one of the attributes ehlo_resp or helo_resp to whatever the server responded (only if they're not already set). SMTP.quit() doesn't clear these attributes, so on the next connection, the HELO/EHLO commands won't be sent; this will cause problems with some servers (MDaemon in my case). The fix is obvious, and a workaround would be to clear the attributes in the instance before calling login (or sendmail where authentication isn't needed). ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 74935 nosy: dwig severity: normal status: open title: smtplib doesn't clear helo/ehlo flags on quit type: behavior versions: Python 2.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4142> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
