New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>:

smtplib uses a wrapper class "SSLFakeFile" in order to call readline() on an 
SSL socket. But modern SSL sockets have makefile(), so using that wrapper class 
really shouldn't necessary (of course, it must be investigated whether that's 
true - and we have no tests for SMTP-over-SSL AFAIK :/).
