We discovered that advertising PIPELINING causes the test smtp client to fail, but we've not even thought about how to fix that - LMTP clients which are re-implementations of SMTP clients might just live with the fact that PIPELINING isn't advertised.
Actually, it looks like this isn't a real problem. The LMTP Channel raises an error if the client disconnects before getting all the Channel's output. But, once the client has gone away, the Channel has no purpose anyway. Hopefully, it will discard any message that it has to avoid message duplication - this remains to be tested. The LMTP listener survives all this, and so I think we are in fact safe to advertise PIPELINING. Hooray!
