Summary:                    Fails to give reponse upon completion of rcpt
Description: 
A responce is needed directly after rcpt command.  Otherwise its
incompatible with the rfc, and it also makes python hang.    I stumbled
upon this when I was adding lmtp support for mailbox2dbmail.

AFAIK the client _should_ support pipelining, which means the respons comes
after the DATA command, not after every RCPT command.

Actually, pipelining means that neither side should block or wait for
anything during the RCPT stage. So both behaviors are slightly wrong.

Its good practice to send a response after rcpt.  This way it allows a
compatible smtp client to be used with it, like python.
