Hi Steven,

I have nothing to do with the original submitter but this bug did catch my eye. Does using mutable variables in the SMTP library serve a purpose? Looking through the code, I wasn't able to spot anything obvious, and I did spot a place with a potential bug:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/smtplib.py#L960

Here mail_options is mutated in the case of a non-ASCII email address. Subsequent calls to send_message, even to a different SMTP server (if I'm not mistaken) would also send these headers along.
