The documentation for smtpd (https://docs.python.org/3/library/smtpd.html)
states that " smtpd
<https://docs.python.org/3/library/smtpd.html#module-smtpd> should be
considered deprecated" and recommends  aiosmtpd
<http://aiosmtpd.readthedocs.io/>.

Are we planning to remove it from the stdlib? Note that at the moment the
smtpd module doesn't emit deprecation warnings, and aiosmtpd is not part of
the stdlib.

This came up on https://bugs.python.org/issue28533, where we were hoping to
be able to move the (properly) deprecated asyncore and asynhat to
test.support (because there are still a few tests that use them). It seems
that smtpd is that last blocker for that.
