Re: [Evolution-hackers] BUG with the EHLO command in SMTP authentication

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

If you read the SASL AUTH specification for SMTP, it says explicitly
that clients MUST re EHLO after a successful AUTH because all
capabilities listed by the first EHLO response no longer apply.

This is not a bug.
