Thanks. Now I am getting closer. But a strange (to me) thing happens.
When I connect to the Echo server and send it a string, it does
correctly run the MySMTP code. But it does not return and execute the
'print "Returned from sending email"' statement until I connect to the
Echo server again and send another string. Any idea why this is
happening? Is there a way to disconnect factory2 from the reactor after
I have sent the "QUIT" string (or when
MySMTPClientFactory.clientConnectionLost() gets called)?

The use of SMTP is just an example. In reality I'm talking a different
protocol, but I wanted to use a common protocol like SMTP in my example
so that someone on the list could easily test my code.
