The smtplib.SMTP.quit() method does not reset the 'helo_resp' and 'ehlo_resp' instance attributes. During the next smtplib.SMTP.sendmail(), the HELO/EHLO commands are not sent, and may cause the remote SMTP service to reject the message, due to improper protocol handshaking. To fix, self.helo_resp and self.ehlo_resp should be set to 'None' in the smtplib.SMTP.quit() method.
