[issue19679] smtpd.py (SMTPChannel): get rid of "conn" attribute

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Are you referring to implementing rfc 3463 and rfc 5248 insofar as they are applicable?  That seems useful.  I don't see anything in the RFC about the 'xab x.y.z text' form of the message, though.  Where is that documented?  IMO these messages should only be emitted if we got an ELHO...actually I would expect there to be an extension keyword associated with this, but I don't see one in the RFC.

The conn argument is a separate issue.  (And probably should not change for backward compatibility reasons.  Also, it doesn't have to be a socket, although it would indeed be unusual if it wasn't.)
