It would be interesting to know if Python 1.5.2's smtplib.py suffers
the same fate in it's getreply() method?  One of the things on my
to-do list is to convert to using the standard smtplib.py module that
Dragon's done a lot of work on, rather than our hacked up version.
It also does a makefile(), but in a different place.

Could this be another Linux-ism that's biting us?  Dragon?
