Sounds like LMTP to me. Which I don't see why LMTP isn't used for this, the
only difference that I recall is the fact that instead of EHLO/HELO, it does
LHLO and at the post data phase, it gives a code for each recipient. Other
than that, it seems like it is just ESMTP. I'm not sure about extensions
such as pipelining, auth, etc with LMTP.
