[Twisted-Python] using ClientFactory from within a server

[Greg]

I am having trouble using ClientFactory to communicate from within a server. 
Specifically, I can't figure out the proper way to exit from the client 
process. 

Included is some example code illustrating the problem I am having. It is the 
simple echo server example, but when someone sends some text to the server, I 
am trying to talk to an SMTP server to send an email. This is just an example 
(there are probably better ways to fire off an email), but you get the idea. 
The client code never "exits" and if I try to use reactor.stop() it causes a 
traceback. 

So how do I properly exit from this client code, or (being new to twisted) am 
I going about this in the entirely wrong way? Thanks.

		"As soon as any data is received, write it back."
		self.transport.write(data)
		factory2 = MySMTPClientFactory()
		host = 'localhost'
		port = 25
		reactor.connectTCP(host, port, factory2)
		reactor.run()

		print "Returned from sending email"
		# ^ Never gets to this point
		
class MySMTP(Protocol):
	def dataReceived(self, data):
			sys.stdout.write('Server said: ' + data)
