Use OnRequestDone(). Check from there if the request was Abort.
What I do is that I build a state machine in the OnRequestDone() event
and call the appropriate method from there. When I build a mass mailer
(that sends more than one message at a time), I check after the Data()
and Abort() requests are completed if the component is connected. If
it is connected, I just call the Reset() method to start a new
transaction within the same session; if it is not connected, I call the
Connect() method to start a new session. The state machine then
continues as usual in both cases.
Note that you also need to check for errors before checking the states.

Those events are designed for progress indicators. The OnRequestDone
is called after every request has completed (and a response has been
received from the server), whether it failed or succeeded.

Do not call Abort(), call instead Reset(). This will reset the server
state ("RSET" SMTP command) so that you can start a new transaction.
In the OnRequestDone() handler (and state machine), look for the
response of Reset and treat it the same as a response from Helo()
(since the server will engage the same state at that point).
Only call Abort() when you want to stop all sending (like if the user
decided to abort a mass mailing). Abort will not close the connection
gracefully, but will just shutdown the socket and reset the component,
which may not happen immediately. So the state changes, while the
socket may still be waiting to close.

Check the SmptCli.Connected property before calling the Connect()
method. Do not depend on the SmtpCli.State property, as the server
could have dropped the connection before the component noticed; but the
SmtpCli.Connected property is an interface to the underlying TWSocket
component.
