Script crashing when try and send an email from within a server socket
handler.

To reproduce...
Set up a client and server as per...
http://sblinn.jottit.com/gnu_smalltalk_netclients-based_echo_server

At http://smalltalk.gnu.org/blog/swoolerton/mail-scripting-0 there is a
class called SMTPHelper.

To see the fault, set the server atResponse method to something like
this...

respondTo: aRequest [
| session sessionSocket msg smtpHelper |
  "sending an email from the aRequest method crashes"
  smtpHelper := SMTPHelper new.
  SMTPHelper smtpHost: 'myMailHost'.
  smtpHelper sendEmailMsg: msg from: fromEmailAddr to:  toEmailAddr
subject: 'Test'.
