Summary: SMTP Example does not work

Initial Comment:
Maybe no one tried it for a long time ... the SMTP
example in the 2.1 version of the smtplib part of
'Python Library Reference' uses 'rawinput()' to read
from input. When the 'user' termninates his message
with ^D, rawinput raises EOFError, which is not catched
in this code, which probably should be changed to

while 1:
  try:
    line = raw_input()
  except EOFError:
    break
  msg = msg + line

Regards,
Matthias

Well, I've fixed this in my sources, but there's stale lock in the CVS repository preventing me from checking this in.  I've filed a support request with SF and will close this bug report when I can make the required checkin.
