There are other, third-party, SMTP server objects available. You could
always use one of those. 

Once the "Python egg" and PyPI improve and start widespread use perhaps
the question of what is in the core library and what is not will become
moot.

Being a Gentoo Linux user I already enjoy having many modules
available, with automatic dependency installation, on demand. So the
idea of "core" library is already blurred for me.
