It is OpenSSL's s_client tool. It does not fulfill the ESMTP standard as it does not perform the EHLO handshake. Note: s_client is an example application and test program. -starttls support was added in a quite rough way to help people in testing some features. It was never intended as a fully featured multi-protocol tool.
