This URL (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/python-list/message/68346), will
be useful to you. It seems someone posted to the group with a fix to the
same problem as you have. Download the smtplib.py file that the person
attached.

I tried it out on the version of Python that I am running (2.1) and it
appears to have the same problem, try the URL I gave you, it should help.
