Piter Py #4

 

Asyncio is modern Python framework which appeared just yesterday, but email protocols exists more then 30 years. When you start new project, you prefer newest technologies. What could happen if new ideas and concepts will be faced with the legacy of the last century? I will talk about why we decided to write own SMTP server on asyncio and what problems were waiting for us in this way. Also I will observe different email protocols, their asyncio implementations and how to work with them.
