Summary: smtplib crashes Windows Kernal.

Initial Comment:
When trying to use the smtplib module (or modules 
which use smtplib i.e. email) the Windows Kenal crashes 
without sending the email. I'm trying to send the email 
through an external mail server but I imagine the problem 
would still exist if I was using a local mailserver.

Im using Python 2.2.2 and the example in smtplib 
documentation originally caused the error. It crashes the 
Kernal on Windows ME and 98, failing to send on Windows XP.

We're going to need more info, and potentially a lot more.  
Start with which version of Python and which flavor of 
Windows.  Lots of people use smtplib on all flavors of 
Windows, and there are no other reports like yours, so it's 
going to turn out to be something very specific to what 
you're doing.  Also. of possible, attach an executable test 
program that reliably triggers the problem for you.
