Yes, you must update  Doc/library/smtplib.rst and write tests.
If you're not the one who's gonna commit the patch you can ignore Doc/whatsnew/3.3.srt and Misc/NEWS changes.

Updating the docstring is usually optional but I see smtplib module is already well documented so I'd update docstrings as well.

As for how to write a patch see:
http://www.python.org/dev/faq/#patches
...or search in the bug tracker for committed patches, such as:
http://bugs.python.org/issue8807
http://svn.python.org/view?view=revision&revision=84144
