(smtpmail-via-smtp): Recognize XVRB as a synonym for VERB and XONE as a synonym for ONEX. (smtpmail-read-response): Add "%s" to `message' calls to avoid problems with percent signs in strings. (smtpmail-read-response): Return all lines of the response text as a list of strings. Formerly only the first line was returned. This is insufficient when one wants to parse e.g. an EHLO response. Ignore responses starting with "0". This is necessary to support the VERB SMTP extension. (smtpmail-via-smtp): Try EHLO and find out which SMTP service extensions the receiving mailer supports. Issue the ONEX and XUSR commands if the corresponding extensions are supported. Issue VERB if supported and `smtpmail-debug-info' is non-nil. Add SIZE attribute to MAIL FROM: command if SIZE extension is supported. Add code that could set the BODY= attribute to MAIL FROM: if the receiving mailer supports 8BITMIME. This is currently disabled, since doing it right might involve adding MIME headers to, and in some cases reencoding, the message.
