[issue16005] smtplib.SMTP().sendmail() and rset()

[Christian Heimes]

Christian Heimes added the comment:

According to RFC 821 a smtp server must always apply with OK when it receives a RSET command.

RESET (RSET)

    This command specifies that the current mail transaction is
    to be aborted.  Any stored sender, recipients, and mail data
    must be discarded, and all buffers and state tables cleared.
    The receiver must send an OK reply.


It seems like your mail server violates the standards.
