A.M. Kuchling added the comment:
Here's a final proposed version of the patch for 2.6 that adds a test. Changes made:
* code now raises SMTPResponseException instead of a new SMTPLineTooLong exception; bwarsaw deemed that adding a new exception class was changing the module API.
* we looked at Serhiy's suggestion to move the length check into the 'while' loop's condition and decided not to -- the code is more obvious with the separate if/break.
* the test class is a cut-and-paste and slight modification of the BadHELOServerTests class; I didn't try to unify them in some way.
