It is documented as deprecated, but only in the 'seealso' note at the top. I think it would be reasonable to open an issue to add an actual 'deprecated' ReST tag to the docs. For your 1 and 2, the stdlib smtpd forwarding is also blocking; that code appears to be copied verbatim from stdlib smtpd. It needs to be replaced with calls to aiosmtplib. Feel free to submit a PR :) For your 3, that design is so that you can run the smtpd server as part of a non-asyncio application (eg: for testing, which has always been the main purpose of this module). For an asyncio-only application you would not use a Controller (unless you wanted to offload the smtp traffic to a different thread, of course, then it would be useful :) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35788> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
