[issue11959] smtpd cannot be used without affecting global state

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

The test failure in #14314 isn't a bug in my code, it is due to the fact that you copied the __init__ method of SMTPChannel in your logging tests, and the __init__ is changed by my patch.  Clearly it would be good to resolve this issue one way or another.

I notice that your logging test code doesn't override create_socket.  Is that no longer needed?
