+python3-aiosmtpd - An asyncio based SMTP server
+
+The Python standard library includes a basic SMTP server in the smtpd
+module, based on the old asynchronous libraries asyncore and asynchat.
+These modules are quite old and are definitely showing their age;
+asyncore and asynchat are difficult APIs to work with, understand,
+extend, and fix.
+
+With the introduction of the asyncio module in Python 3.4, a much
+better way of doing asynchronous I/O is now available.
+It seems obvious that an asyncio-based version of the SMTP and related
+protocols are needed for Python 3.
+This project brings together several highly experienced Python
+developers collaborating on this reimplementation.
+
+This package provides such an implementation of both the SMTP and LMTP
+protocols.
+
+Full documentation is available on aiosmtpd.readthedocs.io
