The SMTP protocol, defined in RFC$5321,$ forms the core of email services for the Internet. Your task is to write an SMTP client that interacts with an SMTP server which sends a correctly formed $($RFC$2822-$compliant$)$ message to a server.

The server for this class is a special server that accepts pretty much anything handed to it as long as the SMTP protocol is being followed correctly. $($note: up to $5$ extra points will be awarded for providing an input that is rejected by the server that should be accepted according to the RFC$5321).$

My server is running at: simplesmtp.thought.net on TCP port $8025($note: SMTP normally runs on port $25,$ this server isn't quite normal, though$).$ If you're curious about the server code, you can find it on github.

Skeleton code is provided for Java and Python.
