summary:

bpo-43842: Fix race condition in test_logging SMTP test (GH-25436) (GH-25437)

Fix a race condition in the SMTP test of test_logging. Don't close a
file descriptor (socket) from a different thread while
asyncore.loop() is polling the file descriptor.

(cherry picked from commit 75ec103b3adbb7c619a0e22fa60f3d34c5a9e603)
